I believe it is day 15

Checking in b\c it seems my isolation plan wasn't gonna help. I evidently grew out of that. I know & realize since I have support here right now, I need you guys :-) . Sorry to be such a drama queen before. I have a lot on my plate right now & I let it get the best of me.

Thumbs up

15 is better than 14 and quite a lot better than 1. Keep on keeping on.

Thanx all .. There was a time when isolation "helped" me .. wasn't trying to quit or anything but trying to get my head straight. I realized that being isolated from '95-'08 really didn't get my head straight; but funk'ed me up more in the long run .. Yea I was clean & sober, but lost touch of how to deal w\ people and all .. So I started to turn back to drinking again; hence I am in the "hole" I am in now b\c of it .. TY all for being here .. I would post in other forums, but Dee said to someone we can post anywhere, and I have a hard time following the "bigger" threads I am gonna stick to here for now lol . Again TY All .. Ohh Good to hear from ya SNST; thought you left us

Glad you reconsidered this isolation thing, August.

I hear you about "getting the head straight", but again - SR rocks)

How are you feeling today? Did you get some rest?

Hope this day will treat you well, and next ones even better.

Take care.

Thanx MB, I got some sleep . The swelling has gone down my back is acting up some but I do have my meds if I choce to take them . But I try and hold off w\ these for work so I can get through that . I forgot to get my regular prescription for my days off .. I was more concerned w\ the antibiotics then anything else today .. I & the Doc forgot to give me info on counseling too because I was in so much pain from my tooth so I have to call her tomorrow . Still in the dumps but hoping I can turn that around w\ a calm rational talk to my ex\roommate . She is a tough cookie but that was one of things that made me fall in love w\ her lol Ironic huh .Thanx Again

Glad you stuck around. Day 15 I was all over the place mentally so don't worry if one minute you feel one way about something and the next totally different. Keep up the good work and let us know how it's goin.

Yea my mind has been running rampant .. Although today was the first time in 2 weeks I was focused on one thing & one thing only; my d**n tooth lol But the sweeling has gone down and the antibiotics are strong ones she said cause she wouldn't to give me quick relief to be able to get it pulled .. Just not a fan of the vicodin; but least I can eat Tuna Sandwich's now lol

I'm at day 14 (I think) and the past two days I have been feeling like pulling away, thinking being alone with my thoughts right now would be best. I had to snap out of those thoughts. Isolation is the worst thing I can do for myself right now. Glad you changed your mind!
