STEP NINE
Help others in their growth toward an abundant life by supportively listening and by sharing my story.
The best way to help ourselves is to help others. All this involvement of using the Tools and working Step Eight will, hopefully, inspire us to continue with Step Nine. We'll be willing to be a Personal Support Friend so as to share up to the level of our recovery. We'll tell our stories. We'll be active in using the Tool of Service.
We'll know that we're ready to put the past behind us and move on to living the rest of our (not perfect) lives with abundance, recognizing the joys of life and glad to be of service to others.
Do I believe that, even when doing well, recovery is a one day at a time process?
Do I feel that once I get my eating under control, I can quit DERP?
Do I believe that a big way of continuing to help myself is to help other disordered eaters?
What parts of the DERP Tools can I do now?
