Stuck in the Muck
Posted On 06/21/2009 13:47:12 by TrentO

Well here it is lets here what kind of feedback is out there today.  My status today has a lot to do with this blog.  Trying sooooo hard to get out of my head not really working though.  I know that we are our own worst enemies but I don't know.  My mind is racing I keep telling myself that I don't have to drink today but my head keeps pushing go ahead you have been sober for a while now and a few drinks won't hurt.  Why thee F**k do I or we have these insane thoughts.  I am not going to drink today but these thoughts are pretty convincing.  Especially with the weather today rainy and wet.  These thoughts are very irritating.  Sorry I make you people read this crap but I don't communicate very well.  I think that is because I care way tooo much of what others think of me.  Maybe I am not good enough I don't know.  Here we go right intop the darn pitty pot feels like it could be a deep one again I hope it does not last too long not sure if I can handle too much of this crap.  Thanks for listening everybody I love you all very much.  Your friend in recovery I hope at least for today Trent.

Whenever my head starts going down that road, I have to reach out- get out of the house, get moving, and doing.

This is a "thinking problem" dis-ease, one of denial, negativity, etc.

Be well, Nia

Dude! I really feel you!! Rainy days (even over cast days) affect me emotionally and mentally and that leads to spiritually. Then you need a freakin meeting but don't want to get INTO the stupid weather that got you all fkd up in the 1st place!! At least that's me...


Call (or interact in someway) with a newcommer (or anyone in sobriety if you cant find a newcommer)when the stupid thoughts are in your head. Don't talk about you, that feeds the bs. Talk about THEM! We all like to talk about ourselves in recovery. Start the conversation with "How's your spirit today?" Honestly listen & try to be positive in your replies. Within 30 mins. your "stinkin thinkin" will have gone away!! It works for me at least. Let me know how it works for you.


Later Gater!

Trent -


    Not crazy. You can't swat a fly by thinking about it (at least I can't). We all get those thoughts, oft fleeting, but can be quite pervasive at times. Good time to drag out the Big Book, 12x12, ABSI or even better - dredge up your last drunk and replay that sucker in your head for a bit. That usually does it for me. Find a meeting, sponsor or sober friend. Blog here. Anything but that first drink. Because that's the one that will surely kill you...


Hugs,


Dennis
