Hippie, you are such an asset to this forum and it would be very sad to lose your thoughtful insight but you need to do what is best for you. With all of your successes know that you have it in you to beat this. You are a strong person and I know you can win this battle.

very difficult scenario you are facing.
i can see why u'd be relapsing.
in other words... i strongly empathize w/ur situation. i've not been around much as of late but do recall ur provocative posts. whatever... the past is past.
i don't know i'd have the strength to leave my child even if i knew it was the best solution for all involved.
only u can know what is best for you and family. follow your instincts they tend not to let us down.
good luck.

Hi Hippie

You know you would be so totally missed here.
I wonder - can you identify the thought you had just before you relapsed? The deep thought? The thought you wish you didn't have or a particularly painful thought?
I spent all day doing this once and I healed from a different thing I was going thru.
My goodness, it was painful.

Take care,

Lila

Hips,

Just keep gratitude and love in your heart and the rest will all work itself out.
Peace to you and yours,

(I moved my kids away from their Dad when they were young, 4 states away, visits in summer only for 3 years. He has since moved here. It was heartbreaking for me, but I had to do it. I talked to the kids alot and there Dad called them alot, they survived. They still were kids who had fun and lived life to the fullest)

Listen, guys.....it's easy to have 0 or 12 drinks......it's impossible to have 2...

It's The Beast.....all he wants you to do is "consider" having a drink....."Let's just put it on the table for discussion....", he says......

Is it on the table or not?.....


No, it is not...

Oh Hippie, I hear your words. "I don't deserve to be happy." I'm with you there. I just don't seem to want a good life. I feel guilty if I feel good.

Hi Hippie,

I'm a little behind the 8-ball knowing what is going on, but I'm intrigued by your relapse pattern. I'm wondering what the statistics are - how many of us actually make it on the long haul? Is there something inherent in we addicted-types that make long term sobriety/control an elusive dream? Whether the AL is a defense mechanism or we just like it, are our victories measured in mere days or months? I hope not. I like to think that people like RJ have totally re-ordered their drinking lives and aren't fighting the beast each day. I realize you don't have the answers, and don't wish to minimize what sounds like some very difficult life moments you are facing. Wishing you peace as you embark on your journey.
