    MUSIC THAT HELPS!!

    HI EVERYONE, I HAVE BEEN READING THE FORUMS FOR OVER A YEAR AND HAVE NEVER POSTED. I HAVE BEEN SOBER FOR 11 MONTHS AFTER BEING A GIN AND KOOLAID ADDICT FOR OVER 14 YEARS. MY HUSBAND FINALLY LEFT ME AND THIS WAS THE TURNING POINT FOR ME. LIKE ALL OF YOU, I FOUND WHAT WORKED FOR ME AND NOW TAKE IT DAY TO DAY AND LOVE MY LIFE MORE THAN EVER. WITHOUT SOUNDING LIKE A LATE NIGHT INFO-MERCIAL I WANT TO RECCOMEND SOME MUSIC THAT REALLY HELPS ME. I GOT A CD CALLED "HUNKER DOWN" FOR MY BIRTHDAY LAST YEAR FROM A SINGER CALLED "MODERN EARL" I LET IT LIE AROUND FOR A WHILE BUT FINALLY LISTENED TO IT AND REALIZED THIS ARTIST MUST HAVE BEEN THRU OUR SITUATION AT ONE POINT BECAUSE I REALLY IDENTIFIED WITH THE WHOLE RECORD. IT WAS ALMOST LIKE WATCHING A MOVIE, WITHOUT THE PICTURE, OF SOMEBODYS LIFE MOVING OUT OF CONTROL AND THEN GETTING AHOLD OF IT AND TRANSFORMING INTO AN HONEST PERSON. ALL THE WHILE IT IS JUST HILARIOUS YET GRIPPINGLY HONESTAND NOT AT ALL PATRONIZING. IT SOUNDS A BIT COUNTRY, A BIT ROCK, NEITHER OF WHICH I AM A BIG FAN OF BUT SOMETING ABOUT THIS MAKES ME REAL HAPPY AND THAT IS WHY I WANTED TO SHARE IT WITH YOU ALL. I AM NOT SURE WHERE SHE GOT THE RECORD BUT IF YOU DO A GOOGLE SEARCH YOU CAN FIND IT AND LISTEN I THINK. TELL ME WHAT YOU THINK. ANYWAY, I WISH ALL OF US CONTINUED LUCK AND STRENGTH EVERYDAY!!
    GOD BLESS!!

      Hi Movin'onup,

      :welcome:

      I will have a quick search for that- anything that helps I am grateful for. I kept this to myself for so long that I am so pleased to have found everyone - I think we all used to feel like the 'only' one with a problem

          Welcome Movin' and congrats for the 11 months. And thanks so much for the music tip.

          I'm also a great believer in music therapy - I use it every day, as life in a city like Hanoi can really get on your nerves. People everywhere, no traffic system and people horning non-stop 24 hours a day. That's when I just sit back in the back of a taxi with my i-pod and let the driver deal with the brunt of the stress, grin ... and do my therapy )

          By the way, my musical tip for de-stress is a musician called NOA. She's Jewish and has an absolutely beautiful voice. Another great musician Cheb Mami (who actually sang in duet with Sting). He's Arabic and his Arabic albums are great for de-stress, too.
