There is something to note here..it's the word intentionally. There are times in life when we bump into people from our life before addiction recovery and it's a coincidence (but ever notice that it's "awkward"?!?).
This is the situation where you purposely hung out with a person who was trouble. Their ways are just not appropriate things that you would be doing to change your habits. You know what I'm talking about.
You get the nervous feeling inside, your mind starts to ask questions of yourself about this person or the situation like 'should i be with her?' or 'what do i say is she asks to go party and get high.how do I get out of that?'.
Take this as a warning light!! Oil and water don't mix! Even if you did happen to be with such a person on purpose don't be afraid to record it in recoveryBox. Your sponsor or accountability partner will want to know. And because they have lived your life, they will not be upset. This will give you the opportunity to see how your triggers and situations all came together so that you don't intentionally put yourself in that position again. Recording it will allow the conversation to flow between you and your sponsor because it's all down in the app for both of you to see.
Be proud of yourself that you did not relapse. Just like as with driving, it's just a warning that you could get yourself into trouble. Just learn from it!
