I just joined the forum today and this is my 18th day of not smoking weed. Music has always been my source of strength and emotional expression, so when I was thinking of a username, Britney Spears-Stronger immediately jumped to the front of my brain (don’t judge me, I’m a Millennial lol). Went to YouTube and played it a couple times and I’m tearing up with joy because as a kid I didn’t realize how powerful this song was.
I feel much better and more solid in my recovery after listening and was wondering do any of you have songs that really motivate you?
A couple of my favorite songs recovery related are both written and rapped by Macklemore! Not everyone knows but he’s been in and out of recovery for the better part of the past several years now.
I know for me coming back into the rooms was hard but Starting Over was extremely motivational for me!
Macklemore - Starting Over
Macklemore - Drug Dealer
73 days weed free today. When I hit a milestone or dodge an urge, I play my sobriety anthem and it makes me feel so good because I AM stronger than yesterday .
