When recovery groups struggle with authentic vulnerability

Three of us in our recovery cohort have been clean for over a year now and we started meeting weekly to check in, but lately it feels like we're all performing 'doing well' for each other instead of being real about how hard some days still are, and I'm worried that if I admit I'm struggling it will somehow give the others permission to relapse or make them think I'm not committed.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The very success you're trying to protect is being undermined by your inability to be honest about ongoing struggles.
