Thank you I was just thinking same thing I'm explaining myself for no reason . I'm doing it I'm staying clean . I should be proud of myself . Not putting myself down because I'm not following the 12steps . I thought people would understand but I guess some wont

WQ...
I bet you are impatient. .lol...u get to see and hear the little one ! How amazing that's gonna be !....I'm smiling for you....thanks for the words. ..clean days are...ok...when I get them...just need to get more of them...preferably one after another..lol...

I think you and PB are essentially saying the same thing...just in different ways...respect to both of you..

I must apologize - I went back and re-read your original post and found "I go to my meetings once a week"

Good luck to you.

Yes I'm like holding onto my seat biting my nails. I'll be 6 weeks tomorrow I have this gut feeling I'm going to end with up twins . I don't know why but I think so . Me and my husband have been having dreams about twins . It's not like we wanted twins I always wanted just one but as long as the baby or babies are healthy and happy I'll be fine.

Oh yeah? Maybe we were trying to say the same thing idk i just dont like it of someone says "I cant do this or that ill fail" because to me that is not an option .

Yes one after the other would be preferable. I'm just glad your trying . Your not giving up I don't care if it was 12 hours that you decided to put down or cut back that's progress to me . Anything besides letting addiction take over is a good thing

PB apology accepted . Like I said I'm not going to NA now because I'm looking for something different . I might not be working all the steps but I am trying everyday to stay sober and it's working so far.

I have to say I found the same thing in most NA or CA meetings as warrior queen. Lots of euphoric recall....lots of people high in meetings or still using..lots of hooking up....newcomers using together. Thats why I stick to AA instead of the other groups even though my DOC is crack. I can have a bottle of booze in the house and not obsess over it.....BUT I also have abused alcohol and still think of "having a drink" when upset...stressed out... so I stay away from it. AA seems to be more "tolerant" these days of "drug users" then my first go round years back. Its the same principle. I read my CA books at home and can REALLY relate to the stories which keeps me reminded of how damn bad it was...can be. I think what PB is trying to say is MOST people can NOT quit without help....and stay quit. I see it time and time again myself with people coming in with 2, 4, 10 yrs of clean time coming back after they quit working a program and relapsed. I felt a lot like you did too ....I could do this on my own. But Im reminded at these meetings by these people who have wasted years of their life thinking that they were fine and I figure if THEY are coming back...they KNOW it works....it worked before for them so Im going to just keep plugging away because Ive already spent way too much time in this miserable hell of addiction.

Hi again
I keep reading your post, glad u keep re posting, pretty sure it gives a lot of people inspiration to go forth and conquer, I'm, as I said, very happy for u n the bunny, and pretty sure you are tough enough to stand up to pretty much anything, you would have made a very good soldier, in fact a commanding officer. I would have followed you into battle any minute of any day. Again, all the best to u n your family, I know you'll tough it out, hence your name, Warrior, love I Think!
