Hi MCF,

Sorry that someone treated you like that. They obviously are unhappy & have some sort of personal agenda. May they be secure & find happiness themselves one day.

All I know from your posts & shares are this: You are a beautiful caring person that is willing & open to help others in their time of need.

Please dont let negative people get you down, they are not worth the time, effort or thought

All of the best,

NB

I have included my personal thoughts (highlighted in red) into the nasty response you recieved as quoted in your post.

It is meaningless

Not to me.

and guaranteed to wind anyone up

Only the unwound would disprove.

– especially when it is being spouted by a newly sober alki,

New and the old alike's have just as much wisdom to share...at least to those that are receptive.

who is as far from being a rounded human being as it is possible to be.

A personal assassination attempt coming from hatefulness serves as a useful example of what to be free from.
I'm personalty pleased your here at SC and get a lot of all your post.

MCF...

I've looked over your thread a couple of times, and wasn't sure what to say.

That response was intended to be below-the belt, and intended to hurt.

You've recieved some really good replies....mine might surprise some.

Tell em' to stick it in their ear.

Or..just ignore them. They are sick.

Best wishes on your journey.

Zencat, you're right drug addiction is a brain disease treatable with evidence-based programs, that is so true. Praxis,the intersection of science and practice holds great promise in the addiction field, if we come out from behind our beloved mythologies.

Many paths to one great reality. Life without harmful substances can bring one into the realm of an awesome truth: pain is unavoidable, suffering is optional.

One of the things I love best about *this*site - the *ignore* button!

Too bad that other site didn't have one.

Good for you to find another place to be, and welcome!
