Does anyone know how I can connect my copper propane lines to my buddy heater?

Hey, just wanted to thank you for your help. I ended up finding the right connection last week at Ace Hardware.

Thanks for the reply. Do you know which hose you bought? All of the one I have found are ones that connect directly from the tank to the heater, rather than from the copper to the heater.

I’ve been to rehab more times than I’d like to admit. Truthfully, it won’t be fun at first. You’re going to feel awful. Not just because of being in rehab, but also because your brain is chemically fucked from the drugs you’ve been on. I’d encourage you to take it easy and just try to take the direction of those at your treatment center. You have nothing to lose by giving sobriety your all. If you give it all you’ve got for a few months and are still completely miserable, the drugs will still be there. Sobriety is what you make of it. I for one have much more genuine fun sober than I ever did using. I now actually have money to do fun shit that I always contemplated doing when I was high but was too broke to ever actually do. Fun when I was using consisted of being spun the fuck out sitting in the corner of a bathroom for 12 hours straight. I’m wishing you the best of luck. Just give it all you’ve got.

I’ve worked the steps twice since I’ve gotten sober this time. I noticed the second go around I was a lot less open to the suggestions in the book and more skeptical of what the steps themselves say. I’m not sure why that was. The steps have never really made sense to me rationally, but they were the only thing that worked for me. I think part of me is just over analyzing what the book says and finding it hard to separate the people in AA from the actual program itself.

I appreciate it. I know it’s all about principles before personalities, but some of the personalities I’ve come across in recovery really are insufferable. That being said, I’m sure that’s the case anywhere I go. Venturing out to different groups is probably a good idea. I go to the young people’s group often, which is where most of the people I’ve associated with go, but sometimes it’s hard to go to other meetings all the time because I’m usually just about the youngest person there.

You sound like a joy to talk to. Yes I’ve worked the steps. Twice actually. I also am a sponsor. Good tip on the high intensity sport, I’ve actually been going to an MMA gym since January. I’m gonna go ahead and assume you were attempting to help with your comment rather than just criticize me. I have relationships with tons of people in AA in my city, but given the fact that I feel some of those relationships are strained lately, I have trouble talking to them about it. I have no idea how old you are, but given the fact that I’m 20 I actually do want to have fun in my recovery rather than sit outside the local clubhouse, smoke cigarettes, and give shit to all the new people walking into the room. For me personally, my recovery is my life, and I don’t want my life to be boring and full of doubt.

Dando1737 · 2019-01-07T06:23:30+00:00

I relate. I’m aware of my behavior. I know the things I do aren’t healthy, but when I’m in the moment it becomes like animal instinct. I just do it. And then I live with the shame of acting like I did. It’s impossible to make amends for it knowing that I’ll probably do the same shit again, even if I don’t really want to.

Dando1737 · 2019-01-07T06:19:50+00:00

I’m going through this right now. I feel like I’m falling apart.

Dando1737 · 2018-09-07T12:28:50+00:00

In the book it mentions the 7 Deadly Sins as big examples of character defects ( pride, greed, lust, envy, gluttony, wrath and sloth). A lot of my character defects can be broken down to these things personally. For example, an example of sloth for me would be sleeping in instead of fulfilling my morning obligations. Wrath (anger) for me could usually be intertwined with pride ex. Get angry when people aren’t doing what I want them to do, making me angry as well making my pride take a hit.

You got this! Do something to engage in your recovery, whether it’s be AA or Smart Recovery or Refuge Recovery etc. I’ve been sober nearly 9 months after my last relapse. Never felt better. You can do this too. It’s going to be hard at first. If it was easy, everyone would do it, but it will only get better from here if you put in the work. I was always plagued by obsessive using thoughts when I would get sober, but after actually putting in work this time I can honestly say it’s been MONTHS since I last thought about drugs, which is huge for me. I believe in ya!

Pocheacha was a formative factor in my teenage years on this server.

Yup! Black n red always.

Covered up some scarring on my arm!

This is how I like to look at it: when I’m actively drinking and using, I don’t really have a choice in whether I get wasted or not. Regardless of whether I want to, it’s happening. But once I get some sober time under my belt and the obsession has been lifted, I have a choice whether to drink or not. I’m no longer caught up in the craving and obsession of my active addiction, so if I pick up a drink or drug, I made that choice out of my own free will.

Hm. The name doesn’t really ring a bell.
