Split I was reading your post this morning when a call came in and I totally forgot to come back and reply. I wanted to recommend pg 417 in the bigbook - acceptance was the answer. That really helps me.
I also wanted to say that one time I was on my sponsor's couch crying about my MS and saying "I know I need to accept it". My sponsor said "You're trying to put gratitude on top of a pile of bullsh*t". She reminded me that there was work to be done before I could accept, that I needed to work and inventory and move through 6 and 7 before I could start to accept.
Hang in there, and keep on writing when things are bothering you.
