Being passive and feeling inferior go hand-in-hand, and they prepare us for becoming dependent on alcohol, pills, food, and people. ~ Casey, Karen. Each Day a New Beginning: Daily Meditations for Women (Kindle Locations 2164-2165). Hazelden Publishing. Kindle Edition.

What happened to bring us
to the rooms of Recovery?
Our lives had become unmanageable
and we were powerless over…???
For me I would have told you over food
but I really know it was food AND
people, approval,”relaxing”
via stupid computer games,
fear, intimidation…
I would have assured you
had I actually been honest
that I didn’t feel inferior,
I was! But I got to the Rooms because
a wise lady  knew me
inside out and knewRecovery
and how we were meant for each other!
And it was the best thing
that could ever have happened to me!
