    Bump it up!

    I always cry when I read these posts. They are very humbling and very painful.

    And unless you've been through it, you just won't get it.

    But WE all get it xxx

    I can not alter the direction of the wind,

    But I can change the direction of my sail.

          Thanks Pauly,
          It's been a stark and brutal link to a past I can't fall back into.
          It makes me cry every time I read the posts.

            This is a great thread. This is why I came here in the first place. Everyone should read this thread regularly.
            I don't miss the pompous ass who often said "I'm not that bad" Or I'm not as bad as so and so, yet I can relate to nearly everything posted here.
            I Do miss some of the people who posted on this thread. I do hope they're sober and well.

              I hear you MrV,

              I often wonder how the others are doing. I often think of Puddleduck & Flossie, amongst many. I hope they are all. I don't come here often enough. I always felt like a fraud till I had some decent time clocked up!. It is such a lonely disease.

              I still do not miss the anxiety guilt and self loathing. Because EVERY thing I did when drinking was full of anxiety and guilt and self loathing. It was so dark.

                [MENTION=14176]autumn[/MENTION], I thought of your thread today when, as I rushed off to the dentist, it occurred to me how glad I was not to have a purple tongue -- and memories of scrubbing my tongue with soap, trying to erase the evidence, came rushing back . I wouldn't have had time today and heaven forbid that the hygienist and dentist find out my nasty little secret...

                    Happy new year Awesome Autumn and y'all!

                    I don't miss the strong sense of fear that i felt. But at 100 + days sober, i just get stronger and more fearless. Hopefully some common sense tags along as well.

                    'I am part of all that I have met, yet all experience is an arch wherethro', gleams that untravelled world whose margins fade, forever and forever when I move'

                    Zen soul Warrior. Freedom today-

                        What I deffo don't miss is using wine in cooking only as an excuse to buy it & 'store it'.
                        Just thought of that now - making a chicken casseroley thing and used some red wine I had in cupboard since Christmas :egad:
                        It would have been one swig for dish & 10 for me....
                        The bottle was empty so I said to MrS in a joke - "this is empty now & I'm 'pished' is that ok?"
                        He looked & said nothing ! ..................
