Well this site is excelling itself once again lol but the positive side to it all is if a newcomer who is contemplateing popping a few pills one look at how it makes you behave should put them off lol.
Why do we even bother to read such posts? simple answer someone elses misery is our pleasure slightly sidictive but human nature im affraid we love gossip in general and we also love getting involved it lets out our aggression, so why dont i join in? simple better things to do like recovery the more time i take on other people garbage the less thought i have for me and thats what kept me taking the pills i did not enough focuss on myself.
Im not knocking anyone if i were i would name you this is just a observation of this site, it will always be the case im affraid so any sensitive people out there need to learn a good tool its called so what lol no big deal.

mmmmmmmmmmmm well thats right i agree
Jax, Thick skin just aint in the cards for someone very early in recovery, I know... so I think, as long as message boards exist, this will always happen.

Tom i agree with you hun thats why i said learn as aposed to anything else i was new once myself and i came here feeling insecure ashamed and sensitive. I learnt fast that the only way to get on here was to not let anyones opinion affect me personly. ive seen lots happen here during my stay people being ignored whist other people continue the thread with their conversations, people being affraid to have an opinion just in case, people being ganged up on and ousted its just a crying shame that people need to express themselves in such a way as abuse which is what i term it abuse ok so subtle but none the less abuse who the hell do we think we are that we become judge and jury? sorry tom on my soap box now lol we are all addicts of one shape form or another we all choose differerent ways to recover so we should be celabrating that fact not trying to distroy other peoples self esteem or trying to get them to do it our way. im relistic enough to know it aint going to happen but it just makes me so sad, jackie xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

i believe we all do the best we can at the moment. there is much that i learn from the actions of others and usually it is a reflection of what i am capable of. whether it's behavior i don't want to engage in or behavior i see that i would like to attain.
in this journey, i learn to listen to that voice within that nudges me to do the next right thing. sometimes it really helps me to see/hear all the different approaches people have to coming to terms with whatever it is they feel the need to address. sometimes it doesn't. i hope that i become quiet enough to tap in on that source within - that good power - when i choose my response. sometimes in my humanness, it doesn't work that way. i'm learning and hope to stay on this positive journey a long time.
as always, my heart is grateful for the learning experiences you share jackie. thank you.

Hiya roe long time no spk hows life? jackie xxxxxxxxx
Yeah I am the one on attention everyone from yesterday its a post I just stay concerned for others it may be in away selfish to myself with all I am going through but I love people no matter who they are or what they do..........
Hiya Sammy long time no spk to you either lol im just a person that has no stero typical barriers before i get to know someone i like to think that my compassion for my fellow human is without any kind of prejudice requardess of who they are or who they think they are, my forgiveness is second to none but my heart aches when i see fellow human beings who should be on the same mission one of recovery tearing into each other. of course i know it will never change but i do live in hope that just for once everyone here could embrace recovery and the fact that people need our help not our negativity dream on eh lol.
hope your well hun jackie xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
