help , trying to work an honest program I'm greatful for SR I've admitted my relaps here. I took simple directions of going back to meetings. And it took everything I had just to walk back into those rooms. But I havn't admitted my relaps here at home. and it's F-f'en with me. I have 30 sober today. I've been reading and writing, I'm finally got to the my bads part. For some reason this issue is keeps coming up in the past couple of days. I need to work an honest program. I won't be able to grow if I carry this baggage with me. It's been an internal struggle. My head tells me a bunch of crap I"m going NUTZ again I let go and take it back I let go and take it back HELP!!! |
I'm only as sick as the secrets I keep, I've been told. 30 days back. You know it's bugging you. I guess you have to weigh the consequences of not admitting to your family versus living with your conscience. And it sounds you're dealing with that right now. Pray you take the next right action Nutz. |
I think about it. It's just so much easier if I didn't say anything. Personally I don't have a problem with it. I'm clean and sober .Things are getting better. But I know there's sometype of lesson or my higher power is trying to take over. I fall back in my comfort zone and don't step up to the plate. I lack courage. I feel ashame... relaps after 11 years and now I'm not honest with my home group. My head tells me that I can do it on my own again |
It's just so much easier if I didn't say anything. Good luck to you, and congrats on your 30 days. Hugs-- |
No, not miserable today. I was sick and tired of being sick and tired long before I relaps. I'm much better not be in an abusive relationship. It's my choice and my life, damit ! I threw my clean/sober time away thinking she would go away. She'd always tells me if I relaps she would leave me well...I did ,and she didn't go away. I'm more aware of verious issues today. But it's first things first. NO...I havn't apply her to step #1 Recovery is a process. I'm not sure if the lessons I'm suppost learnd will help to me to completely breakaway and let go. The courage..I think. It's a simple program. But damn..... |
You wouldn't be so guilt ridden if it was easier to keep it hidden. Have you talked to your sponsor? What has s/'he said to do? That's what I would do! If she leaves, she leaves, wasn't meant to be then. I firmly believe in this. If she stay's well, time to tell it like it is and be honest. However, just because your in recovery, don't think relapse is part of it k? Some get that confused, it's just not so. I'd suggest with all your issues and emotions you stick close with your sponsor during this difficult time. If you don't have a sponsor, find one now! |
Sounds like.. a reservation..I have always payed a price somewhere along the line thinking I could do half measures.Save a-- not face . Prayers, Trish |
No..if i was talking or keeping touch with my sponor or going to meetings I wouldn't had relaps would I. :dunno I guess when all our children died that wansn't ment to be either. I turn it over and take it back I turn it over and take it back I turn it over and take it back |

help, trying to work an honest program Nutz, You know it is an honest program. I personally do not know what it is like to have 11 years. As far as I am concerned it doesn't matter. You have nothing to feel ashamed about. I cannot tell you what to do except that you know it is an honest program and I hate to say it but the truth will set you free. Also anybody who judges you or puts you down if and when you decide to fess up, remember the people who matter won't mind and the people who mind don't matter. You will be in my prayers good night :sleeping1 |
:angel2: I am so sorry about your children,I dont think there is a harder lesson in powerlessness on the face of the earth,my heart goes out to you .When I first came back to the fellowship some days all I could do was the next right thing.You are very fortunate that you didnt stay out longer.It took me ten years to stop using again.If you were clean for 11 years you already know what you haveto do.I tried every way there was to stop using including not telling and I just want to share with you that it didnt work for me.It sounds like you have had more than enough pain in your life.I encourage you to do what you know you haveto do and jump back in with both feet,Bless, Trish |
