Good to see you, Jen.
I know what it's like to hide in bed for a couple of days - depression does that to me - I'm glad you're checking in today.
Hope work is good. It will probably help to get out and do something, even for a few hours.
Talk to you soon.

Hi Jen . I'm glad you let us know how you're doing. I am also glad to hear you're in touch with your doctor for therapy. Give the meds a chance to kick in. It takes awhile to see if they're working sometimes. Have a nice day hon .
I don't get it

I/m sober today and thats all I have. I'm amazed when I read the posts on here how much I see myself in them. And its hard for me to relate to anyone.
Many times I wish I could just be normal..... or just fully enjoy my addiction. But I keep coming back. I can't find what I'm looking for.
I too have to cope and I don't have any coping skills. I feel like a weirdo around people sometimes.
I too want to get well, but I don't think I'm ready to go to any lengths. When I look at my life and what I've missed, why am I not willing to do what ever it takes to get better? I want to "get it".
Thanks for sharing.

I dont know much about you or recovery. This is all pretty new to me. One thing i do know is regret. I see that you love one of my favorite bands. Their new song "What Ive Done" makes me feel hope at times. "In this farewell, theres no blood. Theres no alibi. Because ive drawn regret from the truth of a thousand lies. So let mercy come and wash away, What ive done. Ive faced myself, to cross out what ive become, Erased myself to let go of what ive done. But to ask, what youve thought of me. Well i cleaned this slate with the hands of uncertainty. So let mercy come and wash away, What ive done."

Wow... congrats on the poem !!!
I'm glad your boss is being understanding Jen. You're right, no sense in faking something if it makes you feel worse. Just be yourself.
2 days is great... .

Hey everyone
Well I am here and Im glad to be back on posting again... I slept most of the day today been so tired lately...
I checked my email only to discover that I have a job interveiw with continental airlines next month!
I never thought they would pick me to interview its crazy !!!
I mean I love to style hair but this job will be able to take me to the UK faster as I will let them know I want to relocate
Im excited they have 2 places where I can interview for this job as a stewardess ... either Newark airport in New Jersey or Houston Texas..... and if I have to go to Texas they will pay for me to go there!
Weird huh?!
Well I am drug free .... completely.... I had slipped tonight but.... I had tripped so bad I am still having trouble sorting myself out right now everything is very fuzzy and tonight I realized I hate this feeling its not soothing anymore and now I can really say Im done with it all. Ive never felt so strong about quitting.... it makes me sick to even think about it....
I have not cut either I was tempted to but I did some deep breathing and just calmed myself down .... so Im learning to cope....
I cant wait to live ....
