Did you sleep last night Peggy? You are such an inspiration! I started to reply to Sheryls post last night and my computer would not work!!! I was really bummed I couldn't chat or anything. Anyway, I just want to thank you Peggy for all your energy, you are such an inspiration. I hope one day I can carry that strength to others.
I am still in the inner battle zone, not quite in my center. I hear the message and want it, but I have to always remind myself of the desperation I felt in those last weeks I was using, because I find myself skirting the realm of self sabotage.
I found out last night that several friends from meetings who I thought had months, are back to days, pulling together maybe 3 days most at a time. My shitty addict brain went straight to, "Ya, new connections", I have to squash this, I know, but it sent me spinning a little.
Anyway, thanks for all your posts, and thanks to everyone else here, Lon, BigV, Manon, Sheryl, Tahir, Coryann who we haven't seen in a bit, Brett, MisterFrenchy, Recoveryrabbit and all the others I have met here and who have played a huge part in teaching me recovery and helping me be clean today, day 15!!!
Love and Blessings in recovery
