Tip 3:
Accept that things, situations or events may not always go the way that you want them to.
Nature and life will throw up obstacles and pitfalls that we cannot anticipate for and trying to have a plan, should these occur so that you don’t have a setback which may cause you to relapse or negatively impact your recovery.
Having loving, supportive family members and good clean/sober friends who you can trust and confide in will help you when these difficult times occur.
