Just popping in to say hello, Kevin, and thank you for the positive thoughts. I need all the reminders I can get.

Still here and still ok.

Off to Dinner with two friends one of them my sponsor and then a meeting.

My sponsor has never once told me that I "should" nor has he kicked my butt, he always talks to me in terms of his experience in recovery, I am so fortunate to have met him.

That's a great list Kevin! How about adding "Today I'll be gentle on myself, I'll stop beating myself up". You deserve these things!

Hi Kevin,

I am SO glad to hear you're feeling better.

I have been thinking about so often, these past few days.

Thanks for your post.
And thank you for your honesty about how you feel. I can really relate right now with the way I am feeling . I feel as though I am constantly re directing my feelings so as to not misdirect my anger on anyone else. Staying in constant contact with my HP right now and sharing about it seems to be working for me rite now.
