- I noticed that when someone posts a new thread, there's a button underneath their avatar that says "View more posts." Never noticed that until last night. I got curious and looked at my posting history. Eye opener to say the least.Some of you who...
- I walked around for 4 months with "Fuck you" written across my forehead, pissed off at the world. I don't know why exactly, but someone reached out to me about a month ago at a mtg, despite my poor attitude, and since has just never given up on...
- Does anyone else find this interesting...http://animal.discovery.com/news/briefs/20060508/drunkmonkeys.html
- The psychic shift necessary for so many people to be relieved of the obsession to drink is a mystery? Is it not the result of an inner epiphany, even if buried in the subconscious?This is the "miracle" alcoholics speaks of? It is a mystery because...
- ...is a reward for effort. The baby steps grow into longer strides. After just a few days, the stakes are higher. We don't want to lose the time we've passed already. We don't want those sober days days to be for nothing.The paradox for me is...
- From the BB... "If you have decided you want what we have and are willing to go to any length to get it -- then you are ready to take certain steps."I may be an exception to the rule, but this scared the crap out of me, and, albeit indirectly,...
- ...Anna. I'm sorry to have deceived you all, but it turns out I'm not an alcoholic after all. I am a chocoholic. I can't stop eating Dove Dark Chocolate Promises. All I can think about is my next chocolate. My hands are shaking. I've begun...
- Why is everyone so caught up in whether or not they are worthy of the LABEL "alcoholic"? "Do I have a problem?"You answer it. If you want to stop drinking, STOP. If you don't, DON'T. If you want to stop and can't, get help. I am guilty too of...
- 1. I am learning to filter out my own bullshit thanks to a few people who have gotten really good at calling me on it.2. I am learning humilty (slowly) and that there is nothing to gain from allowing myself to be disturbed by the words of...
- This has been my word for meditation the last 3 days. What I have discovered about myself is....Until now, I was "willing" in a defiant sort of way. I was willing if "they" could make me "get it". I was willing if they could trick me into...
- Told my older bro and boss today "I'm an alcoholic." Convo was liberating. They were both exceptionally supportive.Apologized to my client for my careless behavior over the weekend and accepted accountability for a serious problem I caused. Now...
- Soooo.... "my" program wasn't working obviously. In addition to upping my mtgs and AA work, I am adding "treatment".One more assessment next Friday. The plan is to start an intensive outpatient program the following week. I will stay sober...
- I was a mess this past weekend. I want to apologize to everyone here. I mean it. It is so wrong and selfish of me to be posting the crap I post when drinking. You won't see that anymore. I have had enough of myself. Can't stand me. I am done...
- I'm so fucked up. Can't talk about shit. Shake shiver and start to pass out. Husband hates it, but I have to rock myself to sleep at night. Been doing it since I was little. I'm so fucked up. I used to call my mom in to rub my back - it helped...
- My dad went to aa and decided he wasn't an alcoholic. BS. His dad died an alcoholic. They did an intervention. It didn't work. Wtf is wrong? Why can't we get it? Honesty? I don't even know wtf to be honest about. I don't believe it, any of...
