in the meantime you talk to us or to friends in real life or family, doctor, someone that you trust. you need some help to get over all this that is going on with you, so when you see the therapist, please listen and take their advise. you will not get well until you get the treatment that you need......

With all of the cushions gone this will be hard. But you can hold on. You know how much you were disrespecting your own spirit and that's big. The first step is a huge one and you took it. You can do this!

I drank and drugged for years. Getting clean was hard but worth it. There are no magic pills but reaching out and letting go of stuff seems to really help. Persoanlly I'd find an AA meeting ASAP until I hooked up with a therapist. If you do go, grab someones arm and talk to them, most folks will ID and listen (you'd be helping them too). That's how I did it and it could be a possibilty for you. For me nothing was better than face to face sharing (not that this isn't helpful). The more things you put in your arsenal to fight with, the easier the fight is.

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...
