something thats helped me a lot is remembering that recovery isn't a linear path.
if you're driving from New York to California, then make an unplanned stop in Nebraska, you aren't back in New York. you just gotta deal with the fact you're in Nebraska and move on.
you got this. stay strong.
my grandmother was a programmer at bell in the early 60s and 70s. really curious if she had hands on any of this. wish she was still around to ask lol.
you only realize how cool your grandparents were after they're gone.
