Jay and Diane share thoughts on the Narcotics Anonymous Daily Reader for August 21 - Friendships. They discuss how addictions tend to isolate us and how friendships formed in recovery tend to be deeper than regular, superficial friendships because they're founded on mutual vulnerability and honesty.
They discuss the work required to maintain friendships and how important your choice of friends in determining your future.
Question: How have your strongest friendships been forged and/or what do you do to maintain those friendships?
