Members reflected on the question of how disciplined they are in their recovery journeys, sharing a wide range of honest and personal experiences. Several members described strengths in some areas, like sticking to medication schedules, while admitting struggles in others, like exercise or managing money. A recurring theme was self-awareness and resilience, with one member sharing a powerful story of defying a terminal diagnosis, and another opening up about finally recognizing the barriers holding back their own recovery.

I will always strive to do well in all that I do.

When it comes to my pills, I have my regimen down pat. I’m very faithful to the schedule. Unfortunately, when it comes to exercise, I jump to conclusions, run at the mouth, and fly off the handle.

My partner just had two more positive skin biopsies on his nose and back. They aren't melanomas, which is good news. He has had 5 of those. But, he will again have Mohs surgeries, where they remove tissue, check for clear borders, then stop or continue the process. Twice they took him back 5 times. The strategy for healing changes as more tissue is removed, sometimes necessitating skin graphs from another site. The saving grace is how fast Mike heals, even at 87. He is a real trooper, and he has his own RN looking out for him. 🤠

PS: Mom said, "This too shall pass." I think all of us understand that, we just need to live it.
