Lots of things go on in life and we have to learn HOW to handle them.
I use prayer alot and meditate on things that are hwppening in my life and I try to take a good hard look at whats going on inside of me, alot of things i hate and maybe thats what makes some of us such good addicts, we despise ourselves at times.
SO that said I think what happens is if we are to be successful we have to realize we're not perfect, we're not angles or saints we are just human with imperfections. Once we determine what those imperfections are we can start working them out, changing them into something more positive, something likeable, something manageable.
I hope that the medication helps you and there nothing wrong with seekinbg outside help from a Doctor, this is very improtant I think to do if we suffer from other illness's, you got it and your taking responsibility for your illness I admire you for that. And there are going to be side effects maybe with the medication.
I believe chapter 10 discuss's medical situations that medications may be needed and this is a valid reason.
Remember we are powerless over people, places, things and situations take a look at control, what you try to control in your life and how you respond to it when you haven't got it, and maybe even why you want it so badly.
HEY Big V nice you again this guy I was haning out with from a program has desided to just be friends with me before we both get hurt as he thinks friendship is the best thing right now he has both of the same contions as me on Valentines Day he had no problem showing me how much he cared it just becuase it was a love day we only heald hands for the second date which was tonight then he talked to me about which at that time I had said look we do not have to date I just thought you wanted to as you bought me an I love you bear and said you care for me and was alright with holding me hand and kissing me anyway if you can get back to me about this take care and god bless!
Hi Sheryl, so great to hear from you. Thank you so much for sharing your heart out with us. I truly admire the simplicity and the honesty with which you share. Please keep sharing with us, and stay with us. This, too, shall pass. There is a Higher Power who loves you now!
Hugs, Love & Light ~ Tahir.
