Im sorry you’ve been struggling too! Having given into the recent struggle, I know the pain that comes from temporarily stopping the fight- keep struggling, it builds strength and endurance.
Thank you for being such an inspiration! I am so proud of you! I’ll get there, I just apparently have to learn the hard way lol
Well I have no real friends where im at, which is fine I am a very solitary person. I have my wife and a therapist and my art, all are truly helpful. You will find postive people in your life, i had to ditch a lot of people from my drinking life because they were toxic. I know we are all friends here to help, talk and laugh. Keep up the fight!
Someone as smart as yourself must be in a pretty odd spot because I can’t imagine much you wouldn’t be able to resolve swiftly.
Best of luck with your quandary!
Proud of you @Naturehippy. I have fallen off my own unicorn a couple times over the last few months on this journey! When a horse in training bucks you off, the best thing to do is get back in the saddle and make that horse do laps until it remembers you are boss! Keep your words coming… you inspire so many people on here and a setback does not make your words mean any less. Stay in touch and be kind you yourself. Hugs!
Ha! This made me smile- maybe I need a therapist
Thank you! It is quite the quandary but drinking certainly doesn’t add to the clarity of finding my way out of the labyrinth I’ve created. thank you for your kindness
That meant sooooo much to me! I have been feeling like falling off my horse somehow invalidated everything I’ve said… so what you just said to me was like a huge hug to my heart… thank you!
I would normally never talk to one but she is an addiction specialist and is very nice and very much an all natural hippie😄She is just a calm impartial person to talk to, just like you guys here. If she wasnt so cool and calm I would not continue to see her. Its all about the people you meet.
Totally agree with you! I actually want to become an addictions councilor after I beat this thing
Nothing you say is invalidated…don’t know what’s wrong with those people there with you.
Your sober peeps here know for a fact how much your words mean to us.
I get those people completely… “they hate us cuz they ain’t us”!
That Buddha was a smart guy… he also preferred to live in solitude and learn from nature.
You’ve been demoted to a goat!
If you aren’t living for yourself, why live at all? Work on yourself, the rest will fall in line…sending good vibes your way
The wifi out here is weak, I had a great goat picture for you…I’ll send it when I’m back in the states.
