Yeh, I think I would play my cards very close to my chest there for the moment, but talk to your sponsor about it BEE, because it may bring you to lie and live in fear which in turn might cause your sobriety to suffer

I am really so grateful and I hope that anyone who has any doubts that this program works can take it from my journey so far, that it really does work as long as you stay sober and do the next right thing.

I did talk with her Nel, she just said not to lie, but it was okay to leave out certain things because it would do more harm.

Heard of alot of people that went back out this week, kinda scary. Today and even now "How it Works" keeps going through my head. Even at the interview I kept thinking it over and over "rarely have we seen a person fail, that has thoroughly followed our path....." I think my HP must be giving me a message.

Its true Bee it works if we work it. I have lost count of those who have realsped and recently two close friends have left the rooms, one is uisng and the other struggling. They stopped working and practicing the program. Whatever our program or support its only useful if its No 1 and part of our lives.

One Day at a time we get well

I have been really lucky in a way, being unemployed since before getting sober. I was able to really work a strong program, going to 2 meetings a day since September. I was able to devote all my time to getting sober, and I really did. Last time I was sober it was for everyone else and this time, well it is all for me. I am working the steps, and helping other alcoholics. Things have been really hard but I am living proof to myself that it can be done, I am seeing that I have gotten through all the rough times without having to pick up a drug or a drink. Before I never thought it was possible. And now, as promised, the promises are starting to come true. I really am grateful today for all the darkness as well as the light.
