I get it about IBS. I'm dealing with diverticulitis and colitis and an UTI. Uh. Don't tell me stress doesn't make it flare. Getting tired of banannas, rice, applesauce and potatoes this past month. Thankful to be done with the antibiotics!
I think stress makes it flare!!!!!!!!

I'm home alone no kids no partner and the voice is there for sure but I just can't start again. I'm forcing my mind back through my last withdrawal and to what tomorrow might be like if I drink tonight. Yes okay I'm a crazy person (lol) with a long way to go but God if I gave in tonight then what? Honestly I have no idea how it would pan out and I'm still genuinely scared to go back out there. Good. Frankly I dont really care what has actually stopped me but something has and I'm very relieved. Maybe I do have a fighting chance of making this stick after all.....
You ARE making it stick, dear one. Keep on.

Just a diagnosis to see what our options are would be uplifting. It's hard to watch someone you love suffer so.

ODAAT.................
It is so very, very hard.

Prayers and love to both of you.

You are not complaining. You are sharing with people who love you, sweetheart.

Lots going on with our 24-hr. family.....love, hugs, peace and strength to all....xxxx

My AV is also acting up and last night I told it to F^^^^ Off!! I don't often curse but enough is enough! So please count me ALL in for another 24.
Thanks, bandi.

All curse words are permissible when referring to our AVs. I've called mine some dreadful things .

I just need to rewire my brain- I know for a fact it's that simple. So why won't I take the steps to do it? All I have to do is start meditating. I even got a bunch of new meditations sent to me by a complete stranger (through a FB group.) And here I am not doing them.
Anyway, no more self loathing today. I accept myself and all my flaws. I accept that this is the best I can do for this week and tomorrow I promise I will do better.
Good night friends...
Goodnight, dear one.

Each day brings a new beginning - another chance.

Kris, I am sorry to hear of the ongoing health issues with you and Mr K. I would gladly take all your suffering in return for the kindness and compassion you have shown to us. I hope you can get the medical assistance and see an end to suffering.

Congrats to all the milestoners ! Well done and lets keep moving forward

Another 24 hours of tonglen, serenity and sobriety pls ! Its 9:26am here !
Yes, to sobriety and serenity - not sure about tonglen!
