Valid. False Events Appearing Real. Fuck Everything and Run. Or, Face Everything and Recover.
If you don't put in today you get a gold star, no matter what real or imagined troubles occur. You wanna talk about it, PM me your cell number and I'll at least distract you and make you laugh. I welcome the opportunity to just talk with another drunk.
@JohnnyRage you just did page 24 from the BB in real time on this page. Reading your experience I can feel with sufficient force the pain and suffering. Thank you for your sobriety.
Thanks guys and thank you @BearSchlongfor the chat earlier. I dropped into a meeting tonight and it was a very fitting discussion (funny how that always seems to happen). We read the southern gentlemen story from page 217. @Reagan1k, I feel like your replay fits nicely with the conversation we had tonight in the meeting. The man in the story felt complacent and was tempted to go buy a drink, but stopped to talk to other drunks along the way and spoke to his wife and those kept him from doing so. I had one of these ah ha moments today and realized I haven't been following my program as I should. This shit really does work if I follow it. Thankful to make it through another day sober and grateful for the words of encouragement today.
