I am an OCD bookkeeper it has to be perfect for me...numbers are! So I quit telling him it was for my health. I had been there eight years he was horrified! It was for my health and my families health problems...just haven't fixed me yet!!!

That's a mouthful! Control seems to be central in a lot of issues. What is the serenity prayer all about? What does fear prompt us to go after? Control, the Dr. Jeykll Mr. Hyde...Byrdlady;1470873 wrote: Mein...I am curious...did you go to your meeting with the intention of drinking or did you fall after you got there? This information is critical to us...to learn that we blow our quits long before they are blown. Like Daisy's byline says. I am curious, what got you? You can also tell me to pound sand and it's none of my business! If your answer helps one person then it's a good thing. Glad you are home! Byrdie
Wow, Byrdie, FA asked me about this in a situation I went through. We certainly do lie to ourselves...that part of us can't be left to it's own devices.
Maibaby,
.alot of "adults" don't want a talking relationship just a controlling one.Rule your mind or it will rule you. It is from a thought that an action grows. :batComment

Slay,
I have had people try and control me all my life....it only makes me behave badly....I try to see all people as people worthy of respect...children,animals every living thing deserves respect and the space to learn control about themselves is their journey not mine to force on anything or one

Jenn...you say all that and I drank. Yeah! Recently I have been getting to know someone on this board and going through my history and it's crazy to think with what we've witnessed or experienced as a result of our own drinking that we would drink or continue to drink. I read my own words and think, WOW! We really do lose focus on reality.
Very well done looking forward. I thought, hmmm...sounds like booking a trip to hell! Gee, let's go?Rule your mind or it will rule you. It is from a thought that an action grows. :batComment

Daring or dangerous? For me, it's dangerous. I've made it through a couple temptations this cycle, but I don't want to push it. I'm happy trying to stay clear of it until I gain more strength and time between me and destruction.I'm Strong and in Control;1470857 wrote: Wow. I don't know that I would risk going out to a club with a bunch of drunk colleagues when I'm dealing with my own alcohol issues. That was pretty daring!
Hang tough, everyone. Nite.
