I don't know where I am.
I don't know when I am.
I don't know who I am.
I don't know why I am.

I just know that I don't NEED a drink.

Give it up demons... You've already lost.

Thanks for the supportive messages.

The very last thing I want is to end up like my pops did.
He suffered terribly the last ten years of his life from pickling himself.

No thanks!
I have this addiction to coherent thought... Something that eludes drunks.

Mike.

Practicing the seven minute exercise Mike gets you OUT of those thoughts and simply observe them as that..thoughts which are NOT REAL the only thing real is NOW and most people the horror of NOW(starting with their own family's) drives them back into that psychotic state.

It is a danger to mix those thoughts with emotions,it will kill you.

I know how you feel just lost a grandparent, watching my mother and grandmother fall apart, dealing with my girl friend having terminal cancer at the same time and a million other things drinking has been a go to. Not productive but feels like an escape logically I know it doesn't help but I do it anyways. I hope though you make smarter decisions than I.

Take my first message and insert it here!!

I can't sleep without night terrors.. I used to drink myself to sleep.
Inebriated to the point of not remembering the day before.
I wish that I could sleep!

Damn! I REALLY want a drink!

But

I'm not giving into the darkness.
I can't.
I won't.

That drink existed in your old life BC..that is now history.

When you feel that urge, ya gotta tell yourself: "I Don't do
that any more..that is all in history."

You got a new life now, and these feelings you're having will
get smaller and smaller every day. One day at a time, one hour,
or even minute at a time if that's what needs to be.

Bro, perhaps much the same as you, I have very few good memories
from the past 50 years, and don't remember much from the 10 years
before that.

When I was getting sober, I had the same issues trying to sleep. Bad
dreams out of the past.

So, I made up some new memories...:thumbsup:

I envisioned myself as a young man again, and that I had decided
to live alone and off-grid, deep in the wilds of Alaska. If ya think about
it, there's a hellofa lot involved with that kind of lifestyle. Picking a spot
to build a cabin..then figuring out how I wanted to build it. Square log,
round..or scribed?

A million other considerations, too. Animals, firewood, survival, etc.

And yeah...it was a new life so my cabin was alcohol and death-powder free.

Anytime my mind started to wander I'd bring it back to the task at hand.

No, it's not real and never will be, but building the "BelongaMike" cabin
sure got me through some rough times.

..

Right now you're a free man...stay that way..it's worth the fight.
