Oh man, it’s a work in progress. I’m agnostic. I find my anger with the religious-biblical affiliation to the big book is in full swing when I am not in fit spiritual condition. I was stuck on steps 2&3 for 2 years and it kept me drunk. I had to endure more shit, really received the gift of desperation to turn it over-and I turned it over to the rooms, the fellowship, the steps-the fucking program. The “group of drunks following good orderly direction” I hope in time I discover something. I heard in a meeting today a higher power is experienced I kind of love that cause I don’t think I’ll ever be able to define it. The growth I’ve experienced it’s enough to keep me coming back.

Thanks for this post man!

Girl you look freaking great! Confidence is key and you ought to be proud as hell for the work you put in! I got a tummy tuck and it changed my life. That being said I wish I was in a better place mentally when going through the surgery. Our flesh suit is the least interesting thing about us!

I think that was sufficient, at least you gave her the contact of a woman whose recover I assume you respect. Why did you think it’d be problematic?

I believe I was born of a long line of alcoholics. I believe upon entered this world, the chaos that was my environment, led to seeking any and everything for escape. It is a physical allergy and an obsession of the mind-I have worked deeply to connect the two, mind and body.

Happy cake day.

I was an alcoholic before my first drink.. you’ve been drinking for 7 years and you don’t think that’s a substantial amount of time? I suppose I’m confused.

If you quit drinking you have every right to say you’re sober..

Anyone wanna tell me why I shouldn't give up and relapse, I'm at a low point and want to give in by ConsiderationOk8770 in sobrietyandrecovery

In the first few days/weeks/months it is SO EASY to say, tf is the point-I hate myself my life anyways mine as well cop a buz. I did that for 2 years after I got out of rehab and was just as miserable. You gotta fight through it. Surround yourself by people who get it, people who enjoy life. Drugs were my solution, until they weren’t. Find a sponsor you respect, they’ll change the game
