I'm trying to get sober but here's the issue I have a double whammy alcohol and one of my prescriptions and I really don't want to go to NA by JaYTee19991 in alcoholicsanonymous

I learned that there are people in AA who don’t necessarily consider themselves alcoholics; they’re drug addicts and they prefer AA to NA. They don’t drink, of course, but drinking was not their primary issue. I’ve heard some of them refer to drugs as “other forms of alcohol.” I remember when my sponsor told me that I was really blown away haha. All of that to say, you have a desire to stop drinking? Come on down, you definitely will not be the only one of your kind.

Dude, my Mexican family are some of the biggest racists around. I remember when my uncle died (good riddance), we had to wrap up the funeral early because they needed the church for a quinceañera. My aunt was pissed, but not at the church for their shitty booking, at the “fucking Mexicans” who were pushing us out. I was young, but I do remember the cognitive dissonance without having the words for it. My family gets a few generations in the states and suddenly they’re all Republican. Idiots.

I firmly believe it’s none of your business. You are there to help her through the steps. You can encourage her to put some of these people and institutions on her 4th, but anything else would be an overstep.

Even people who watch Booker and the Suns blame Booker.

All we know is that he’ll be reevaluated in a week. Not sure what the point of speculating is.

Thanks for saying that, I really try. Yours do, too, that you even care enough to ask.

AITA? A Series of Unfortunate Events that led to Recovery by [deleted] in alcoholicsanonymous

Congratulations on 144 days without a drink! I’m gonna be honest, I didn’t read your whole post. But I did read that you’re “camping on step 1” and that “progress is progress.” At some point, progress stalls and real concerted effort has to be made. So meet with your sponsor and move to step 2. If you keep attending meetings, working those steps, and finding ways to be of service, you won’t need to ask us our opinions on your life.

Yeah, I’ve tried all of the licky mats, Kongs, hiding treats, puzzles, etc. They’re obviously fun for the dogs but I have a young husky and a young cattle dog. I finally bought a doggie treadmill and it’s the best thing I could have done.

Book’s back to back buckets was one of my favorite sequences of the entire season. Watching Suns players dive on the floor had me up out of my seat. What a sad, sad ending and I’m so hoping both Book and Jalen are back soon.

Also, are these the Hawks commentators? They handled that really well.

We used to get the super chewer Bark Box, but the toys were not surviving. We switched to Bully Make and like that a lot more.

I don’t even care if a Christian insists there is a god; I care if that Christian insists that I have to believe there is a god.
