not so str8 or narrow!!
A friend of mine has done so well on cd but had to stop for medical reasons. She has restarted now she is allowed but is having an incredibly hard time. she has just binged and i'm trying to help get her back on track but i just dont know what to say! she is so confused by this time being so much harder than the first time. I dont understand why is it harder? I'm on my first time so i have no experience of a restart. i have looked around all the forums for explanations/advice and all i can see is that everyone has the exact same experience!
I was wondering if maybe it isnt that the second time IS harder but maybe that the memory of the first time is that it was easier than it actually was?
this may be because its the first week or so that is really hard but the majority of the journey is easy(ish lol) so you remember the majority feeling not the initial feeling plus the initial excitement may overshadow the initial hardness.
what do you think - am i way off the mark? or does it make sense? any advise you could give me to help her restart successfully would be great.
