To all of those struggling, KEEP YOUR HEAD UP!

I know for me it is so easy to get down into the dumps about things, but it is amazing how far a little positive thinking can get ya. Smile, enjoy the day for what it is, and live YOUR life. Make a conscious decision to be happy for today, and nothing else can bring you down. It feels amazing, to feel that kind of peace. So keep your head up, things are gunna get easier.

Thanks for the uplifting message. I'm going to try and be happy today. Heck, at least i'm sober right now, trying to stay that way. I like the saying "Fake it till you make it".

Hey Magic,

Good to hear from you and to see you are happy and moving forward. A positive outlook can be a huge contribution toward both mental health and toward sobriety.

I want to call you (gently) on your defiance about drinking and driving in your last thread. Are you ready to admit that it is wrong and that you need to make a stronger effort to ensure that you don't do it? Even if you feel like it's a restriction on your freedom? That would be a positive step forward, for sure. What do you think?

We care about you here and want to help keep you safe from your destructive demons. When you're feeling positive and experiencing joy, sometimes, that's the best time to step forward.

With care, MLE

if you tell the judge you don't see anything wrong with driving under the influence no doubt he'll send you to jail because you're a danger to yourself and others when you do that.

Red face

It's funny cause there is only one that knows my
struggles and that is my H.P. whom I choose to call
my Lord, and Savior, Jesus Christ
and yes It was reveal to me the Magnitude of
my struggles, But he also told me that I will
make it, so Hold your Head Up everybody at
S.R.,

and to those that are reading but don't dare
to Post, If you are Struggling Just call open Him
he knows everything from Beginning, to End.
and for all those who are still Struggling this one is for U
