“Recovery is about choosing yourself all of the time. So if you don't feel comfortable going somewhere, spending time with certain people, don't do it. If you don't feel like being around unsupportive friends or unsupportive family, you don't have to. I'm here to remind you that it's a good time to enforce these boundaries and you don't have to do anything that you don't want to do, period.”
