My recovery looks different than other people's. I don't have a sponsor or anything like that. What's working for me now is working for me but it may not work for other people. It seemed like you were willing to just show a lot of willingness, you were willing to try everything. You wanted to be, but you can't wish willingness on somebody. Definitely can't. That's what worked for me was allowing me the freedom to kind of figure out what worked for me. It was like a build a bear workshop, so I picked a little bit of Dharma Recovery, you know? I had worked AA in the past so it's like I was applying that in my life and then just kind of picked and choose what worked for me. Not based off of what everybody wanted my recovery to look like. And being able to do that, I guess I felt empowered. That's, that's, I mean, that's good stuff, man. I like it because it's recovery. It's my recovery plan, you know? Yeah, your recovery plan.
