When we first come to recovery, we have lived a life for so long not only are we unable to differentiate the truth from the false outside of us, but we no longer can differentiate who we are or who we are not.
I must view myself as one deserving recovery and healthy relationships. Until I see myself in this light, I will not do the things necessary to transform into this person.
Identity
- The state or fact of remaining the same one or ones, as under varying aspects or conditions
- The condition of being oneself or itself, and not another
- Condition or character as to who a person is
- Qualities, beliefs that distinguish or identify a person
- The state or fact of being the same one as described
- The sense of self, providing sameness and continuity in personality over time
Our identity is evolving.

Robert is the Recovery Guy. Getting clean and sober on April 25, 1986 has given me the insight and practical skill set to not only stay sober, but to also re-invent myself to the person I always wanted to become. Showing others how to do this is my life goal.
