Rowan...
You know..you had experince with such matters in the real world.
And i didn't really know how to reach out to you at those times.
i had to keep my distance or healthy boundaries...you know what
i'm saying.
I really did care and I guess i'm having a deeper understanding
and compassion about such matters.
I guess there many path to recovery...my agf just deem
that i shouldn't take route 13th and it's okay for her....i don't know.
it was a Mind F^%##@k at the very least :rof
okay i can laugh about it now...so i'm getting better, on a good even ways.
what,... the mods watch out for me on a good, good day when there's vemon
shooting out my eyes ??.lol

I know...i test the mod's tolerance..lol
So there you go..plenty of tolerance on this site.
i don't know...there's always the ignor button, just
add me on your ignor list for the people that can't
stands me or if my spelling hurts your eyes..lol
Something about following instructions..rather..rather.
i follow that path or instructions
but i guess some people are special like my GF...

Yeah, well I just wanna say that THERE IS ONLY ONE PATH to recovery, and I know what it is and I'm gonna tell you whether any of you wanna hear it or not ...
And damn it I know I am right!
Here it is:
Don't Pick Up!
I'm sorry if that's a controversial sentiment, but I just feel like I had to go on the record with it ...

the truth is that they are working THE PROGRAM - from the place the steps came from - with the directions they came with.

I have tried many things to stay sober and what is working for me is just what you said.
So, from my experience, this is what I recommend.
Read the book - Take the steps.
If you find some other way that works for you, God bless you and I wish you the best!

SaTiT,
You can't spell and your grammar is non-existent.
However, in spite of this, you really have a way with words.
I find you concepts to be very clear and rather insightful.
(Makes me wonder if you really can write well and it's a sthick?! LoL

It's the stichs. I have a mild form of dyslexia.
I have to correct my spelling in all of the post i write
over and over again.
Maybe it's ADD...maybe it's becuase i just don't care.
If I slow down I can correct my spelling and catch
some of my grammer. I write the way I talk which
is not proper grammer. English is my second language
and i didn't learned english at a young of age enough
to make a decent transistion. I had to take speach
therapy as a kid becuase of different mouth movements.
Plus my native language is phrased backwards to english which
my brain for some reason can't structure.
There's different rules in my native language.
There's not a past tense or pre tense or singular.
So you might notice that and it can be confusing if i goof
for the readers, to know what i'm writing.
I don't have problems reading and comprehension.
I read a lot...So, one would think it would stick or leap
into my writing.
At lot of recoverying addicts has similar problems.
A lot of me sponsee are shy or ashame to read
in meetings becuase they can't pronounce words.
I couldn't even filled my disablity form when I first got
clean. The most I could do was scribble my name.
I re-learned how to read by reading recovery literature.
Memorizing the 12 steps was a challenge.
But tehres a stduy proevn taht you suhold be albe to
cmoprhoned waht i witre if i ptu olny the frist and
lsat ltetres of a wrod croretlcy
so if you can't figure out my spelling...you have brain damage:rof
Or you have ego problems.
I'm not even imtemiated by people using big words any more.
I don't practice using them..so i don't recall the meanings of them
right of the bat...but i'm smart enough to type it on the net to look it up.
i don't even have to get it correct any more. i just have to get it close , with
the way the serch engine is today.
mmm..if i get an i phone...that's that.lol

I'm confused...in your estimation, how much longer will it be until you finally recover? Thanks.
