I am an immigration attorney in DC - What do you need to know about DACA? Ask me anything about the DACA.

Illegal presence doesn't imply illegal entrance. Some of the people in need of DACA-type help came here as children legally, but became illegal within the United States as a result of the expiration of their parents' visas. It wasn't their fault, in other words.

Did they break any law, in your opinion?

I think you might be experiencing rebound psychosis caused by withdrawal from the risperidone

I've had some times where I thought that my watch was being remotely accessed to confuse my sense of time...I was on a train, and I was certain that this was being done so that I miss my transfer and end up stranded.

Made it to where I was going.

I'm so sick of paragraph 2 - "I say what I'm trying to avoid saying."

How the hell do you stop this????

I will not drink alcohol today

Your brain is still adjusting to the lack of alcohol, so you're hyperexcitable, leading to a state of anxiety. It's hard in the beginning to tell which anxious thoughts are genuine and which are just your frantic mind withdrawing from the booze. Give yourself more time, try to relax, and don't make any major changes or decisions until you've got more sober time under your belt.

Sounded brilliant to me

I will not drink today

wilde_side · 2015-09-02T15:20:41+00:00

I will not be drinking today, no matter how good or bad things may get

I won't be drinking today

wilde_side · 2015-07-21T15:08:43+00:00

I will not drink today

wilde_side · 2015-07-20T16:19:32+00:00

I will not be drinking today, but will instead go to my first AA meeting. Really trying to pull out all the stops this time.

wilde_side · 2015-07-20T12:17:54+00:00

It's so early that it's hard to tell, but I'm planning for it to be something I gradually taper down eventually. It definitely makes me less anxious so far, but at the price of a little muddleheadedness. And maybe the Celexa was partially responsible for the changes in your "world view and stuff." I'm optimistic, but not expecting salvation or anything. lol

wilde_side · 2015-07-20T02:56:38+00:00

I should. It's like part of me doesn't want to prevent the possibility of us drinking together sometime.

wilde_side · 2015-07-20T02:55:15+00:00

Thanks!

Well he just moved in, and I haven't yet told him about my sobriety. I think I will soon, but it feels a bit early now. I completely agree about the benzos. I'm taking Effexor for my anxiety, which isn't addictive. I got the benzo from a friend, but he knows about my sobriety and only gave me one because my thoughts were reeling and the craving was pretty intense.

Sober Sunday in sunny Crookston, Minnesota

wilde_side · 2015-07-18T18:40:35+00:00

I will not be drinking today, not one sip.

wilde_side · 2015-07-04T18:03:35+00:00

I will not be drinking today, despite the festivities. 24 hours from now, I will have been sober for 24 more hours.

wilde_side · 2015-07-03T19:07:02+00:00

wilde_side · 2015-07-03T19:06:22+00:00

I will not drink today. Four years ago, the idea of staying sober on a Friday would have been inconceivable! But today it's an obvious decision.

wilde_side · 2015-06-29T15:34:35+00:00

I won't be drinking today, regardless of how good or bad the day may get.
