You are very right.  Now, you have me curious, what did the girl say when you confronted her?  What did the counselor say?  Was the problem resolved?  I would have been pissed also. I would have done the same thing, and I would have thought the same way. 

Happy Holiday to you Serenity:)

well i think it easier to comment on here than to comment sometimes in a group. sometimes ppl find it easier to say what they want to say when they arent face to face with the person. I know for example when i was in a group we went around and we introduced ourselves and the clean time we have and then anything else we want to say. well there was 2 people that were laughing  and they looked high. the one was a female( it doesnt matter what you are) and she was goin through her pocket book putting on makeup, lipstick what ever making alot of noise, well then it was her turn, she said her name haha giggle giggle, then she was like well i smoke pot and i cant stay clean and she kept on laughing. sso did her friend next to  her. i didnt think it was funny at all. I got up and tried to leave the group, the counselor that was running the group asked me what the problem was and i said that i wanted to leave cause i was sick of the BS that was goin on. and the counselor saw what was goin on. he asked me if i would stay and tell the group wht the problem was. Well i did. I told the girl that was laughing- Ya know I take recovery seriously, very seriously. and i didnt understand why she was laughing??? what was so funny??? cause i didnt think it was funny. i told her she was disrespectful and so on. I told her how i felt. That is the type of person that i am. So with the blogs- i feel that if it relates to you then you should comment, that is my opinion. I try to . Now not every single one. That would take forever!!! But ya know what i mean.  I find that it helps me in my recovery and it might help you also, you will find that ppl have the same issues as you do.

I take one day at a time also, i am working the steps, i am on the 4th step. I am just like all of you.

Well i wish everyone a happy holiday and a safe new year!!!

Hi, I feel the same way.  I've commented, posted, did a blog, tried to add friends, and nothing seems to come of it.  I found one friend, but she's gone for awhile.

Talking and sharing helped me through my year of h*ll? with getting sober.  I'm in a new area, and don't have many friends, so I thought this site would help. But, that's OK.  I'm 1 1/2 years sober, after 20 years of drinking. I take one day at a time.  I worked the 12 steps, so sharing and helping I love to do. I've walked the walk, now I can talk the talk.  I've been through it all. 

Keep in touch.  Tina
