Im going to my first AA meeting tonight...

Im actually looking forward to it and Im sad to say that i drunk again last night!! The worrying thing is that this morning I dont feel guilty or too badly hangover and its the lack of guilt that worries me! this is a **** of a disease and Im trhough with the guilt!! I wish we had places in NZ when you can go away for a week or a month and get your act sorted out!! im angry at the moment not sure weather its at myself or other things? ill let you all know how I go tonight its amounst like a feeling of accetance that i have of me? guilt was helping me just making me feel suicidal which i dont want to go back to that! I have a problem but Im me

I'm so glad you're going ang.I'll definitely be thinking of you.

I am fairly sure there are rehab places in N.Z hon-just not sure if there's any in Auckland.I'll look into it though and get back to you.

Check back in and let us know how the meeting is won't you?

Love, Julesxox

thanks Jules tho i ahve to be realistic with three kiddies and a hubby that works full time I dont think we could afford me to "step" off the world. thats what i want to do just step alway from life for a little while just to sit in silance with no stimulation going around just quietness.

Hi Ang,

I know exactly how you feel. Sometimes I feel like death is my only excuse to get some rest. Sorry, I can't do the dishes, I am dead.

Seriously though, I found more peace and serenity in my programme than I could have found on the most deserted island. My head would have come with me you see.

I am so pleased you are taking this step. Let us know how you get on ok?

Steph

Great news!

So - tell us how it was - did you get alot out of it?

I was a non believer in AA but I am so into it now. It is an amazing program filled with tons of support. It works if your heart is in it so stay sober and keep going!
