    Hi All!

    I am posting here today because I want to give EVERYONE encouragement- 3 years ago tomorrow, I joined MWO. I had hit rock bottom, and without going into the details, I thought for all purposes that I would forever LOOSE my battle with AL.

    Well fast forward 3 years, and I want to let everyone know I am WINNING my battle. Notice I say Winning- Not WON. I will never Completely win, Many more days are better than others- but the good days outweight the bad days, and I am 100% better than I was 3 years ago.
    SO my reason for posting here is to all of you NEWbees encouragement- it will get better. I finally figured that the beast will never go away, but Each day I am able to fight him off is a winning day
    Good luck to you all!

    And every day is a challenge - But I am WINNING so far!

            Hi All!

            Everyone, here is the advise I take for myself- take it one day at a time, and if that seems impossible, try a half day at a time, and if that seems to hard, take it hour by hour, and if that seems lifetime- take it minute by minute.. And stay close to my way out when it really gets tough, we are all here for each other!
