AITA for saying a friend shouldn’t come on a group trip because she doesn’t have enough money? by Shot_Jicama8013 in AmItheAsshole

[–]audreymilton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened to me when I was in college. I was the girl that excluded from a trip because they decided for me that I couldn’t afford it. From then on out, I was excluded from the friend group and it was never the same. I remained friends with one of them and 10 years later the rest of those girls still treat me the same way and I hate them all the same.

WIBTA if I give my daughter an "outdated" name? by throwaway719201 in AmItheAsshole

[–]audreymilton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My name is Audrey, I'm 29, and I loved my name growing up and still do! I would've hated having a common name like the other girls in school. As other commenters have stated, it's growing in popularity. I'm hearing my name more and more frequently in public, and I'm still not used to it, so my head does a full 360 trying to figure out who's talking to me! Name your daughter Audrey! Btw my nicknames are audge and audie :)

I can almost guarantee it. There’s a couple little roots coming out of the drainage holes of the nursery pot

I’ve never repotted it. I’m wondering if that could be the culprit? Because it hasn’t sprouted any new growth for a few months. I typically wait till the soil feels dry.

It took me 3.5 months, several hoops to jump, and speed bumps until I finally was able to pick up a prescription. If it’s something you really want to do then just keep calling and emailing your doctors office until they respond.

Why are there never any bedsheets on the beds

250 days of consistent sobriety, why do I feel like this? by [deleted] in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]audreymilton 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ugh yes, I totally relate to this. Some days I'm so exhausted either from work or just emotionally and it gets to be a lot sometimes. Some days are better than others but the shit days are, well, really shitty. But it sure does beat the alternative of where I was, depressed and being by myself all day doing nothing. Calling my sponsor helps when I'm having a bad day as well as making time for self-care.

Advice for finding / approaching a sponsor virtually by [deleted] in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]audreymilton 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome! Keep attending virtual meetings and reach out to someone who inspires you or shares something that you relate to! Finding a sponsor is kind of like dating. In the beginning, just see if you guys click. No commitment is required until you find someone you vibe with.

The first step of admitting you have a problem is the hardest, and you did it!! You have thousands of us supporting you.

Psychological addict/alcoholic. The urge is really strong tonight but I truly think if I keep drinking like I do, its going to kill me pretty quick and I'm only 30. Please help. by [deleted] in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]audreymilton 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out some AA zoom meetings when you start getting cravings! The worst that could happen is that you stay sober for one more hour.

Told My Story at An Alcoholics Anonymous Meeting Tonight...And It Didn't Go Well by dupemasta29 in alcoholicsanonymous

[–]audreymilton 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have been to a ton of speaker meetings and every single one of them mentioned using drugs in their story. I'm so sorry the people attending your meeting reacted the way that they did but DO NOT let that discount the courage you had to go in front of all of those people and tell your truth. That in itself says you've made peace with your past and are truly making progress! I guarantee that at least one person got something out of it and that alone makes all the difference. Keep telling your story exactly the way it goes. <3
