    Lenair was not the Silver Bullet

    Cindi, thank you so much for sharing your experience with all of us. I am happy for you that YOU are happy with the outcome, even though it wasn't what you had hoped for WRT AL. You sound VERY happy to be mending from whatever it is that is far worse than AL. (I can't imagine, and am sorry for whatever you went through there...)

    Welcome back - sounds like you are stronger than ever to continue the fight.

        Cindi,
        I missed a lot; it is so hard to get around and read everything but I stumbled on this magic bullet post and I wondered what is Lenair and who is Rhonda? It sounds like an interesting experience, from what I gathered from today's posts. Just curious. Kriger

          I like what Vera said that you were fighting AL with one hand tied behindyour back. I am so happy that something more important that needed to be healed is healed and that you are so happy and positive.

          Love you Cindi!

            Google it Kriger...it will be explained on their web site. Hard to explain in a short post!

              Welcome back, Cindi. I'm happy you had a good experience at Lenair. It must feel awesome to have had some wounds healed. Thanks for sharing with us.

                Hi Lila, a Shaman is like a 'witch doctor' in tribes. They are able to talk to spirits, bring forth trances and such, heal the sick with magic and herbal medicines...

                  Cindi - you are a blessing on this site to so many people. I appreciate your honesty, and may this be the beginning of something new for you.

                    I have followed your posts and struggles for a while and I was truly praying this would be "your way out", but I must say although it may not have helped with the alcohol, you sound so glad you went and positive. I am glad for whatever peace you have received from Lenair.

                      Cindi - I am so glad you had a good experience, great experience, at Lenair...... I know you say it wasn't the Magic Bullet but just maybe, after the healing changes you did experience have gelled and settled, you'll find the next steps in the sorting of Al become clearer..... As is said, "How do you go on a long journey? You just go to the next corner around which you'll see where to go next."

                      I so hope and pray that next step clarifies over the next few days and weeks....in the meantime, feel good, feel happpy, walk on air and hang in there!!

                      Lots of love from me...

                        Cindi, I too was really pulling for you as I hoped for anther possible magic fix. However it only convinces me more of what i am already thinking.

                        When I was af for so long on the topa and I swore that that was it! the topa. solely and completely. In fact i couldnt understand anyone who was takin it and drinkin. What the heck was wrong with them?

                        But i now realize how much it was only a tool and my real success was my mindset.

                        I had it and had it strong.


                        As some of you know I hit about 18 -19 months af and then started drinkin again.

                        I simply lost my mindset.
                        Or more like i gave myself permission to give it up. Thought I had tackled the whole thing and that it would be ok to drink again. Even on topa. So then i quit topa and really started drinkin. And then the old addiction grabbed on again. Before you knew it i was drinkin my old 12 pk a day. So i get worried and started topa again and guess what????My old godsend that i swore by before doesnt work now. why?????? no mind set!!!


                        for any of this we can get help and other little tools but if we dont click into a mind set and set our mind to succeed.....it aint gonna happen.

                          Hopefully my mindset is a little stronger now cuz i am getting sick of myself.

                            Cindi,

                            Like everyone else, I'm sorry Lenair didn't work for the AL...but happy it worked so well for you ELSEWHERE.

                            It sounds like it perhaps opened up whole other doors...or windows...or bridges...you didn't even know you wanted or needed opened.

                            New beginnings.

                            A lot like life.

                            See where it takes you, revel in the positive, and here's hoping it can bring you renewed strength you need to tackle the things you want and need to tackle. In the meantime, please keep posting -- your courage and honesty are obviously an inspiration to many here, me included.

                            Thank you.

                              Thank you everyone.

                              I wish I could have posted that I am "healed" from the drinking.

                              Howver, I do know I am healed from other things that were worse. Much worse.

                              I can't speak of them to my parents, (they would be horrified and die) and I can't speak of them to all off you.

                              The issues I have dealt with in the last few days were horrendous. Totally.

                              What is hilarious is my daughter and her hubby went though my house and found BOTTLES of vodka. They are so concerned.

                              I did not buy those today or even last week.

                              I have not bought vodka in a long time.

                              They are worried about that which they should not be and I am worried about my girl, who has been throwing up blood for the last week.

                              I am just sitting here figuring out how to be a sober and happy person.

                              That is all I am doing tonight.

                              They do not get it.

                              Love,
                              Cindi

                              Oh, and I wish, hope, pray that my daughter "gets it," too.

                                Hun this sounds really worrying considering...........I know YOU have a lot one your plate at the moment but this scares me a bit. Please pm me and tell me things are OK or post again. This is really upsetting to hear.
