Freedomfries is the av giving you a hard time ?
If so try not to let your mind wander.
Go for a run or a walk.
It passes...

I The main thing is to recognize it for what it is, a thought, that's all it is until you act on it.
Just a measly little thought that can be ignored and sent away.

This is how I deal with AV.

I could be in the middle of doing something and all of a sudden I will have this, "you know one day I might be able to have just.....".
Tricky bastid go away. It usually does

Mimosa where I live have pink "feather flowers" , a sweet scent, and fern-like leaves.

Yours looks different but very beautiful Vinny--

Good morning/evening, all.

Lovely tree, Vman.

Manta, well done on your sober Weekend!

Nice to meet you, freedom fries and fishkiller.

Had the most disturbing drinking dream last night. The dream ‘began’ at the end of a heavy drinking episode and with those feelings of self-loathing and shame. Even the relief I felt when I awoke didn’t diminish those feelings.

I thank God that those days are over and for SR and all of you here. Let’s stay the beautiful Sober Course.

Have a beautiful day, all.

Go soberly.
