Feeling Rejected/Ignored

[debruce]

Ok,
I have been on this site off and on for about 1 year now. Every time I seem to post not many respond.
Am I too shallow????
Do you not like me????
Whenever I attach myself to another thread no one seems to respond.
I know this is not a clicky group but I do feel a little left out.
Maybe I do come across as a shallow person, but I am serious and do need your help. Please talk to me

I sense that you are needing something, but I don't know what. How can I help?

Debruce,

Oh, I am so sorry that happens to you.

What TZ do you live in? I have noticed that people who live on the West Coast of USA are often "left out" unless they post early a.m. or waaaay late at night because they end up posting to the bottom of threads that are going to be ignored by the next day.

I for one, truly, always read your posts and respond if I can but it may be that I have done so much posting already that I am "done in."

Every once in a while I find myself too upset by things or too tired to respond to everyone.

Anyway, from now on, I will make sure I look for your posts and respond.

Okay??

I do care, truly!! :l
Love,
Cindi

Sorry you feel this way debruce. I personally don't read everything and have not seen you around. I hope you feel better.

I really would just like some correspondence to the replies/threads that I have.
I know that I am not perfect and every time that I say I am going to stop it doesn't happen, but I am not that different to every one else.

:l Debruce I always mention you on the Firework thread and send you good wishes. Look at yesterdays post :l

I don't always have the time to post on many threads but I always acknowledged who has taken the trouble to post on the thread I started.

You are very very valued and sending you loads and loads of love

wow, thanks Cindi,
I live in Australia, so obviously feel a million miles away.
But I do feel close in our e mails etc. We are all in the same boat, doesn't matter where we live.
Please keep talking to me

Debruce,

Umm, you are talking to the queen of stop and start. I know exactly what you mean!!

No one minds that. We all know YOU have to get to that place that makes you want to stop.

Shoot, if people had given up on me after a few tries, I'd a been out of here ages ago!!

Keep on keepin' on as they say. Bear always told me, "never give up, it is only those who give up trying that fail."

I heeded his advice and kept on trying.

Of coure, I am only on day 26 this time, but I just know in my heart it is my last time. I went the Antabuse route and am taking Gabapentin. My mindset has turned around completely. I pop that AB pill first thing a.m. and know, "I am sober today, at least!!"

My shrink and I plan on long term AB for me so I can work through the other issues. When I asked about AB he was thrilled. He said it showed how determined I was to beat this. He also so that we simply cannot work on the other issues until the haze of booze is lift from my life. I agree.

You will find your way. Keep reading and ASK questions. People will respond. I promise.

Love,
Cindi

Debruce,

One other thing. As fast as these threads move down, if you ask a specific question in the middle of a thread, it might get lost before the person you ask ever gets a chance to see it.

In that case, either start a brand new thread (such as your question to MM about meditating) or pm her.

People who don't want to be pm'd turn that option off in ther user cp, so you shouldn't upset anyone by pm'g them.

You are welcome to pm me anytime. I may not answer right away, but I will answer when I see it.

Love,
Cindi

Wow, don't you just love it that we are all in different countries/continents and we can sill relate!!!!
Guess that just shows how much of a pull the old alcohol has on us!!!
I don't feel very far away from any of you, but I know that I am. I am assuming that alcohol does not know any boundaries or limits. Just happens where you are.
Can't believe how much it changes your life. I so want to be alcohol free, but my head just won't go there!!!!
Don't know what to do or where to go???

Well said Captnjack if you are both in the same time zones you could become great buddies. It isn't that the rest of us don't care it is just a matter or timing sometimes

Lots of love Sweetpea :l xxxxxxxxxx
