My life with addiction

When I looked to see what you'd said to Martin, I was expecting to read something profound and well thought out. Concluded that your post had both of these qualities.

BW,

Ha CW. The simple beauty life presents us on a daily basis is a thing to be truely grateful for

Thanks Dan, appreciated. I am struggling with the fellowship and unity at the moment. Your share reminds me not to close my eyes. Thanks for the reminder. Tri

Deleting of diaries & threads seem to be in abundence lately. Such a shame, especially for those that took time out of their own day to contribute on them. Bit of a slap in the face if you had something on one of them you wished to re-read. Why cant folk just walk away if they no longer want to be here. Instead of taking their ball home with them. Perhaps its an attempt to deny they ever had a problem in the first place.

Know how you feel dan. Makes it difficult when they come back. Have to start a new diary. Ahh well. Might just forgot about contributing to other diaries, just focus on myself?

Sad isn't it 🙁

I owe my recovery to people who have documented their journeys & can see very little merit in the edit button after say 24 hours let alone entire threads going missing! Didn't realise til earlier that one of the challenge threads was gone too, it's not my bag but I read a post where someone was looking forward to reaching that particular milestone & quite frankly, it sucks!

Tri that was my first response. I rarely post on others diaries anyway for various other reasons. But this & the venom directed at people who do keep it real has made me retreat even more & that really isnt me. Kels not one challenge deleted but two. Also not my bag as I dont believe in challenging your addiction but probs crushing for those who brought into it.

After handing this over to my higher power I've come back with some serenity in my heart. I wish these that once helped and supported me the best and thank them for our time together. I will remember their memory but will not let it stop me working on my own journey. I value the shares I recieve from others and the support given. Now I stand up, dust myself off and prepare myself for the next person I meet. Salut.

Thats a very wise way to look at it Tri.

Hi Tri,

Just a fly by to echo earlier posts. When I get the urge to run away from my diary it's me running away from me period. Anyway, I appreciate your support and am glad you were able to find your peace. -joanxx

Sorry Dan, thought I was posting on Tri's diary. Lol. 7 days away and I can't remember .. Do I wind my b**t and scratch my watch??

I got it, thanks Joan. Tri x

Sometimes the answer is so close you need to refocus and take a step back to see it.

Best wishes

The therapist on the Daniella Westbrook thing tonight is one of my favourite people who speak about addiction. She gets it
