Thanks for the message from "out there" TMP and I'm glad you're back.
I used to hear people in the AA rooms say to put as much time into your recovery as you did into drinking. I was a daily drinker & drank about 10 hours a day for the last couple of years. No way was I going to do that!
Now I realize that it's not that you "should" put that kind of time into recovery, or have to, or it's the "right" way -- it's what I need to do to stay sober. My brain needs serious reprogramming and it's not going to happen without effort and time.
SR is a great tool and I frequently repeat the advice Windancer gave me when I was new here: post post post!
