A Persons True Nature

Hi everyone..most are probably sleeping its almost midnight on the West Coast.


I did some past thread reads...and was amazed that Jeff never used to be like that. I have pasted one of his posts. It sounds like a different man. Could there be a reason for the deteriation of character??Truly doesnt seem like thw same man:

You decide:

good morning

I am grateful fo many things -Family most important.

But I always had my family. Something new that I am grateful for is that someone on this board lit a fire under my $ss to get real.

I have made a commitment to get involved in AA instead of just going to a few meetings a week. Some weeks one or no meetings because I was to darn lazy.

STUPID

Yes I am going through a tough W/D on a non narcotic drug but I need AA. I needed a push and got it.

Also very grateful to have any form of a relationship with God.

5 yrs ago Oct 2nd my best friend died of Cancer at 38. Left a 8 yr old daughter behind. Well I am sitting here with my 6 yr old watching her typeaway on a laptop. 6 yrs old--she is very smart and gorgeous. I get her every 2 weeks and am certainly grateful.

also grateful for you a fellow addict to add some spirituality to the board.

--God Bless--Jeff

SAME PERSON OR IS THE JEFF OF LATE AN EVIL TWIN?LOLO

i just think there has to be a reason for his change...and maybe he needs to be asked that by his fellow addicts...and then welcomed back with open arms

Peace to all

Ali, very perceptive. I was one of the first people to welcome Jeff. I thought he was genuinely nice and I had asked him to please stick around. (not sure if you saw that)

Then the subtle change occured. Then it was totally obvious that he was angry.

I do not have a solution or a suggestion, I just wanted to commend you on your perception.

Im sure you are sleeping but good morning.
Maybe it has something to do with him being bi-polar, who knows
Could be Fire, but understanding that I guess is not our. Example, airport bomb guy. You can't second guess when your being attacked and it is not up to us I guess to tolerate issues that arent ours. I hope he gets the help he needs cuz I know he has it in him to be nice.
Wiverson,

Yes..I agree..he obviously has some issues to work out, it is my hope that he does so, and is allowed back to the board, to start fresh. Everyone deserves a 2nd chance, and I know for me this board has been a life line.

In the worst case scenario, I am worried that perhaps he started to use again, and thus the change. Not evryones DOC makes them feel and act like a better person...alcohol in particular can bring out the worst in some...totally change their personality....

Well lets hope for the best and not presume the worst. This time of year is hard for many...lack of sunshine, pressures of the holiday...etc..

LOLOL and you are right, just got out of bed...at almost 11:00..lazy me...had bad nightmares that i caved in and swallowed my whole bottle...even felt like I had overdosed and was dying...kept telling myself to wake up, move...get these pills out of you...throw up...thank God it was only a dream...buthad it 2X!


Crikey.....lolol
Hugs to both,

Ali
