Hey grimey, how are you doing?
keep posting and venting! its all part of recovery you know....
Let us know what positive steps you are taking to help yourself....sometimes its good just to say hey! I didnt drink today!
Recovery can be hard...major chnages in thought and behaviour take place...but its a time when you have to be easy on yourself and try not to do too much in one day!!!
That was my problem! once i decided I had had ENOUGH I wanted 10 years of sobriety NOW! impatient lot us addicts and alkies! LOL but with the help from my AA meetings and sponsor I made it and continue to recover one day at a time...dont always get it right adn sometimes life has been really painful but the benefits outweigh the negatives...
Grimey check out the NA meetings in your area, I know the ones in my area (uk) are full of laughter! with fabulous real people who have been to hell and come right back to live full, happy and purposeful lives! The laughter you hear is tremendous, the cheers and whooping that go on is incredible as yet another member reaches a milestone in their recovery! my AA meetings are pretty much the same but are tame compared to NA LOL!
There is so much joy to be had grimey really! joy and love you never thought possible....it takes courage to admit that you are an alckie or addict it takes guts and courage to decide to get well no matter what!
I believe that everyone has the capacity to recover! but you have to be ready you have to really want it...
Keep reading the threads, and keep posting my freind....once in recovery you will not want to go back to the turmoil you once called your life..
you are worth it as bikewench said
WE are all worth it
love and prayers
purrdyxxxx
