Learning to Live Again Is Killin’ Me~
I’m sure y’all are as sick of hearing from my ass as I am listening to myself in my head but… this is part of my therapy and it is what I will continue to do… BUT, I do think you’ll find this blog in a whole different perspective than my others, my others startedContinue reading “Learning to Live Again Is Killin’ Me~”
We are not normal, but we’re okay with that ~ ACCEPTANCE
Finally on Texas Turf for good… so many changes going on and many many firsts and lasts and new journeys .. new relationships, finding my place in the relationships I have with my family, establishing the “parent” roll again and all of this has really made me reflect on how much recovery has made meContinue reading “We are not normal, but we’re okay with that ~ ACCEPTANCE”
Ever wondered how the mind of an alcoholic/addict thinks.. daily?
Maybe I’m meant to stay a little broken, a little incomplete and a little imperfect so there’s room for growth. There’s always room for growth even when I’m tired of it. I mean haven’t I proven enough, haven’t I been through enough? I guess not, I guess there needs to be room for someone toContinue reading “Ever wondered how the mind of an alcoholic/addict thinks.. daily?”
You ever just have THOSE days…
I do.. and I don’t feel like I am supposed to have those days anymore but then I have to remember that I am human… that just because I am in the position to share my story and help people that I am exempt from having those days! Days where you struggle to find yourContinue reading “You ever just have THOSE days…”
Venting/Relevant & Irrelevant thoughts… just a whole bunch of stuff that I decided to rid my mind of today~
I know it’s been a bit since I’ve blogged… I don’t plan these, any of them, when something comes to mind I just sit down and start typing so that’s why there is no consistency to my timeframe on blogs. I don’t just write to write … my over energized ass would never allow thatContinue reading “Venting/Relevant & Irrelevant thoughts… just a whole bunch of stuff that I decided to rid my mind of today~”
What is it like to be an Alcoholic?
I discovered alcohol in my teens, today I am sober. This is an attempt to take you inside the mind of an alcoholic. Many people out there simply do not understand what goes on in the mind of an alcoholic. How could they?? Unless you are, you can’t. Many times us alcoholics do not evenContinue reading “What is it like to be an Alcoholic?”
A vicious cycle….
There are some days that I feel like I am back to the beginning of my sobriety… with that being said, it’s not about me drinking again, it’s about the flood of memories and regret and GUILT that comes back in from time to time. Social media as we all know can be a doubleContinue reading “A vicious cycle….”
Holidays, Happiness & Whatever….
I haven’t posted in a while but I’ve had several emails and things asking about the Holidays and adjusting, whether it be a family member of the alcoholic or the alcoholic himself. I’m going to keep this short and sweet (well, kind of) and to the point. For all involved, the holidays are what YOUContinue reading “Holidays, Happiness & Whatever….”
Interventions/Family Help/Judgement
The hardest part for families and loved ones (outside of seeing the person they know and love turn into someone that they no longer know) is approaching the addict/alcoholic about treatment/help. I want to start off by saying this… you may or may not agree with me, and that’s fine you don’t have to orContinue reading “Interventions/Family Help/Judgement”
Why Me?
I want to start off by saying that I am grateful and proud of the ones of you that have emailed me or messaged me personally about family, friends, questions, etc. And I know some concerns have been about confidentiality… not wanting it out there that someone is seeking help… this is 100% understandable, everyContinue reading “Why Me?”
