hey eric,nice to meet you.
i went to AA in january last year,i too was doing everything right so i thought......
lots of AA meetings,calling folk from the fellowship several times a day,meeting them for lunch or coffee,eating better,reading inspirational books,decorating and spring cleaning my house.
but.....i suffer the ISM too,take away booze (my solution to life) and i am irritable,discontent and unhappy,life sucked.
after a month i drank again,i dint want to,but im powerless.
so,i needed a replacement in my life.
i got a sponsor and got on the 12 step recovery programme of alcoholics anonymous.
life is grand now,i see lots of good stuff,and i even see good stuff come out of what seems horrible situations at the time.
you didnt mention the steps....time to look for a sponsor maybe my friend and get that spiritual awakening! come on in,the waters fine!
you are in my prayers.
