checkin in - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

MagdaM · 07-20-2005, 09:08 PM

hello everyone. sorry i haven't posted much the past few days. i will have a week tomorrow!!! finally. and i don't feel like breaking it at all. i really don't. i'm making plans to go back to new mexico next month to stay with my mommy. i want to see her so bad. i miss my family. i want to be clean and look nice when i show up. my mom will buy me a plane ticket--and i'm going to get my hair cut and just try to show up looking good.

thank you guys so much for advising me through all of this. i'm going to start going to meetings this week. i haven't gotten to eat that big mac i've been wanting yet--my stomach is still rather unpredictable, but i feel okay and i've been eating and everything. been pretty depressed--but kind of detached from that too. i am feeling optimistic.

*hugs everyone*

My friend I am so proud of you and I know that we can do this together, you are one of the biggest reasons that I started posting again, and I want to thank you for making me feel needed that day. That is how this thing works is one addict helping an addict or an alcoholic helping an addict, cause if we are and alcoholic we are and addict and the addict is just as much an alcholic, we do it for the same reason to escape reality. I am not saying that this is easy, you have read my post but sometimes we have to not worry about our face and just save our @ss and I try to remember that this too will pass. Love you A lot Vic
