Wreckage of my past

I had a court date and was notified like 2 months in advance so I did what any good alcoholic does - I imagined every possible negative scenerio to where I had myself so worked up that I started having anxiety attacks again, now I know how to control them, by talking myself through them and the only thing that stopped them was my GOD I finally had enough and said "Here you deal with it" and I meant it now of course I'm not perfect and I did think of it once in a while as soon as I did I gave it back real quick. So needless to say I didn't suffer anymore attacks even the day of court I knew whatever was gonna happen was gonna happen and I could not control the outcome. Of course GOD has my back and always has and he saw fit for me to remain in the free world, now the rest is up to me to do what is right -- -- -- ------AMAZING--------------

That goes with my post BLESSED vs LUCKY.
I guess you think BLESSED, right?
I SCREAM at God to take my anxiety.
Maybe I should ask more GENTLY? :)

But then again, I SCREAMED at Him to help me quit drinking and I haven't drank a drop since.(?)
I guess it's just up to Him on who He decides to help.

Good post dfrease. I get that way too about pretty much everything but since getting sober it definately has gotten better. especially since I have learned the great gift of turning it over.. takes the edge off in a more spiritual way rather than the obsessive way.. can't control people, places or things .. just me.. sort of.. you know what I mean..

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
