Isolation vs. solitude in recovery
A lot of people in recovery think they’re practicing healthy alone time, but are actually slipping into isolation, which can be dangerous. - Isolation = avoiding support, hiding, feeding negative thoughts - Solitude = intentional alone time for growth, reflection, peace - How do you personally tell the difference between isolation and solitude? - What are your warning signs that you’re starting to isolate? - What’s one thing you do to reconnect when you feel yourself pulling away? - Recovery isn’t about being alone it’s about knowing when being alone is hurting you vs. helping you grow.
