The body passes quick if you let it just run its course and accept it for what it is its the mind that fucks with you for a while. Its like having the flu for afew days than having an anxiety disorder for weeks to months . Shit isnt fun but I have had it much worse

Its also not my first go sadly I do know how to get through it I just really like to walk that line for some reason. Shit gives me a lot of energy and is kind of my peds in life.

You ever consider trying NA? It's hard not to relapse without some after care. Not saying you can't do it, but it might help.

i think jordan peterson is as likely to help as some ex junkie telling me about jesus. I think at the end of the day it doesnt matter how you do it the magic is inside you all along and you just gotta learn to live a different life

this my third try in 12 years or so my last streak was around 3 years.

Also I still like Ronda and think she got a bad deal

NA/AA isn't about Jesus or religion. They want you to have a "higher power" and that can be anything bigger than you. I know a man in AA whose higher power is aliens, he has an alien head key chain and if you were to ask what his higher power is he will show you that key chain.

Are there going to be people thats higher power is religion? Yes, but it doesn't have to be. For instance my higher power isn't Jesus even though I'm Catholic, it's my wife and kids.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but at least here in Florida, AA is almost predominantly God/Jesus involved, which is why most meetings are at churches.

There are a ton of AA/NA meetings around, if it's too much religion you can always go try another meeting. In my city they have meeting in churches, but they also have a lot of meetings in community centers, military bases, houses etc. Sometimes you may need to shop around for a meeting that suits you.

Very true, I was just saying in my experience, all the ones I've seen, or even from searching all the ones I've seen are usually Jesus Christ based.

If it's Alien based, I'd go even if I didn't have an alcohol problem.

I dont disagree with this but I also dont wanna go to meetings and always think about it either. Im just trying to take it a day at a time and go down this new road I have been trying to pull it together here the past 2 years inch by inch and get a grip on myself. Maybe at some point ill feel like going to meetings but at the moment i just wanna be close to home.
I had a pretty inspiring talk with my wife at the end of our party about life and love and its got me feeling pretty inspired. she didnt threaten me or anything like that we just talked about the past 20 years and the things that have happened and how you dont always have to carry the load of the past and who i am to her and some really real feelings that I hope all of your ladies tell you some day .

maybe I do have a higher power and just didnt see it that way. 20 years at just past my 35th birthday is/was a serious milestone.

it is all jesus you just sub in your thing it really isnt the best method. The best method is to seek why you are doing this behavior and then try to build your life in a direction where that need is met some other way and you learn to live without it

It's not supposed to be Jesus Christ based, it's supposed to be "higher power" based. But that's how it be sometimes, people make it whatever they want and if it's helping people stay sober then good on them. Sometimes you need to work for your sobriety and search around for what you need, I can only speak from what I have seen though so maybe it's harder to find it in the south.
 
arent you guys glad i only have a few friends and always share my tales with the PWd. Sometimes ya just need a place to vent and sadly I found a buncha wrestling fans on an mma forum.

Good luck, there are other programs out there too that could help. It helps to be around people that are going through the same thing you are. You can do it. :)
