I think Twitch is on the right track. It is a balanced approach that gets people through most stuff.

sometimes you just have to weather the storm no matter how many people have been in the same situation it always feels different in real time. i recently separated 5 weeks ago and we decided to call it quits, and everyone says it will get better. well its not tv and i cant just hit the fast forward to happy times button. somehow someway i am going to find my release of the pressure and stress til then i just have to be that boxer in the 10th round fighting to stay on my feet I know that feeling; I've had to ride alot of hard times out and it's not easy. I know it's easy to say -- but in time things will change for you too. My dad used to say "sometimes you eat the bear; and other times the bear eats you". The hard part is getting through your loss (no matter what that loss is) and moving ahead. I'm sorry you are hurting right now. |

Drinking brings about conflict during times of depression and hurt. It can be fun during the upsided times in your life when things are going great as long as it isn't abused. Right now, it's prolly best if you drink a yoo-hoo rather than a beer. Drugs are never good. Instead,, replace them with something that can be productive for your life. Find an addiction that has no down sides and only brings positive results! I agree that alcohol is not much of a plus in anyones life that I have seen. There are no addictions that don't have a down side that I have seen. |

isnt it funny how we are in so many different places and we are so many different faces but yet we all tend to have some of the same issues and thoughts and problems running thru our heads? i sometimes wonder... man noone is going thru what i am then.... bam! here is a whole slew of people young old and in between that are going thru similar things That's the truth -- it really helps to talk to other people; so many people are hurting right now. Very true. And I think talking to people can give you a ton of pespective to look at things. I know I have gotten a lot out of this site and I hope it keeps going. |

I learned mine through the rooms of sobriety (by taking it one day at a time). Not all days are good right now. Losing my job really kicked my ass and some days I cry. Deep inside me there is a fire along with hope and I try really hard to see the positive in each day -- if I didn't have that I'd be drunk right now. Something I can't afford to do. |

In the rooms of AA we have a little saying -- Give Time, Time. Take it a day at a time. You will find you are alot stronger than you think. |

Well hopefully all of us pulling together in the same direction will help us get to our goals. I think we have a lot to offer each other. I have found if I listen to people long enough I can find something I like about them. I get interested in their lives and hope for them. Lot of people think your cyber friends are not that important but if you invest in the process with kindness and being yourself you can discover a lot about yourself and that people are like Tundra says very much alike. (((HUGS Roomies)))
Thanks for a great thread Totage. Hope life starts going your way and you feel better soon. |
