I've Outgrown the Shame of the Past

"What have I outgrown, and why was it hard to let go?"
I’ve outgrown the shame of everything that I did that hurt people when I was in active addition. I started getting better and better recently, mental health wise, and I think it’s because when I look at my recovery, I see myself how I see everyone else doing well in recovery- I’m happy for them and amazed by their accomplishment of getting better. I am either going to continue getting better or reach my max potential early because I’m limiting myself by pulling myself down with shame. I’m amazed I was able to learn as much as I have while being crushed by shame every day. But now, being that I feel genuinely great about myself in recovery, I am able to focus and grow limitlessly.
