    • I’m With You

      From Halli January 4

      Hi Tilia.. I believe you will get through to better things this year..You have been through a lot and it's bound to take time to come to terms with. Have faith in yourself and be very good to yourself. Treat your self as you would like others to treat you with patience and kindness. I hope you manage to stay off the drink.. You say it gives you confidence, but it is a false confidence and will only bring you further problems in the long term. You sound like a lovely and intelligent young lady with your whole life ahead to build your dreams and I can sense your ability to do just that.. Nothing but the best wishes for you.. My New Year was ok.. I'm in the UK and watched the celebrations on the tv.. then fell asleep infront of it.. I don't celebrate it as I used to and leave that to my children these days. Really, really hope this is a great year for you.. Inka xxx

      From Halli December 31, 2008

      Hiya... Hope you have a great New Year.. I found this recipe here and thought of you: NEW YEAR'S RECIPE Take twelve, fine, full-grown months, see that these are thoroughly free from all old memories of bitterness, rancor, hate and jealousy; cleanse them completely from every clinging spite: pick off all specks of pettiness and littleness; in short , see that these months are freed from all the past; have them as fresh and clean as when they first came from the great storehouse of Time. Cut these months into thirty or thirty-one equal parts. This batch will keep for just one year. Do not attempt to make up the whole batch at one time (so many persons spoil the entire lot in this way), but prepare one day at a time, as follows: Into each day put twelve parts of faith, eleven of patience, ten of courage, nine of work (some people omit this ingredient and so spoil the flavor of the rest), eight of hope, seven of fidelity, six of liberality, five of kindness, four of rest (leaving this out is like leaving the oil out of the salad, don't do it), three of prayer, two of meditation, and one well selected resolution. If you have no conscientious scruples, put in about a teaspoonful of good spirits, a dash of fun, a pinch of folly, a sprinkling of play, and a heaping cupful of good humor. Pour into the whole love ad libitum and mix with a vim. Cook thoroughly in a fervent heat; garnish with a few smiles and a sprig of joy; then serve with quietness, unselfishness, and cheerfulness, and a Happy New Year is certain. All the best.. Inka xxx

      I'm very sorry about your loss. Mine was similar. Perhaps the bereavement forum can give you some extra help and support. Hugs for you.

    • Close Alcoholism

      I am not even sure yet if I want to stop drinking but I do know it is a problem. If I have one and can't stop until im really drunk or going to get sick or just fall asleep. I think I drink cause when I have had drinks I feel like the confident person I would like to be..I am sure many of us feel that way. But unfortunately my drinking bothers one of my family members and I had a big blow out with that person. So now I am here try to figure out what I am going to do. So here I am.

      To day is my second day of not drinking and I am not having the urge. I am going to work at 3pm and I don't usually drink on the days I work. I am feeling much better today and happy about my choice not to drink. Just going to take it day by day. I have looked up going to meetings but I haven't decided if I will go..soo I will see.
    • Close Anxiety

      I have always been anxious a little I suppose but once my mom passed away it got really bad. I found her in her bed. She wasn't sick that I knew of and she wasnt aware either. She had a pulmonary emboli from ovarian cancer. I couldn't sleep and I felt like my body was shaking on the inside.

      Feel much better now that the dose is correct. I am functioning more normally.
