“Consistency was never a part of my home during my growing years. Thus, as an adult, I have viewed consistency as boring, preferring to add unnecessary drama to my life. As I look back on this chaos, I realize that accountability and consistency are qualities that will add to my comfort and security.”

“SEPTEMBER 25—RULES I am creating my own rules. My values create the foundation for healthy choices. I am learning the difference between adapting to another’s expectations to feel accepted and experimenting with different rules to find out what fits for me. There are many times in my adulthood when I feel like I never left adolescence. When I encounter different social or professional situations, I become awkward and uncertain. I sometimes feel shameful—thinking that everyone else must know the rules—except me. In my recovery, I am establishing my own values. I have a right to choose work and relationships that complement my values. If I am unsure about the rules in any situation, I can ask questions or form my own. Today I will I create rules that work for me.”
