Simply put, a thread to drop by and let everyone know how your day is going, or to receive support if you are having a bad day.

I'll start.

I just woke up, with a toothache from the tooth I cracked off last week and isin't being fixed until tuesday. I am feeling thankful for tylenol! Other than that I am feeling pretty ok today, considering last night I was kind of down, now I am feeling pretty good.

And you?

Hi Rainbowzz,
Sorry to hear about your tooth. It will be a long weekend for you!

I'm suffering tremendous rebound anxiety after dc'ing benzos last Wed. Can't hardly stand being in my own skin!

Thanks for asking.
Best,
Okie

Hope your tooth is ok today. I'm doing alright. Didn't hear about my job yesterday like I thought I would. So I'm praying for patience.

Waiting for things like that is tough, but you've just got to realize that eventually you'll hear the decision no matter what, and worrying about it isn't going to affect what happens. You've done your best trying to get the job.

As for my day, not sure how today's going to go. I just woke up, and I'm definitely feeling last night's pack, and I'm just hoping I won't have too many problems today, with women or drinking or smoking or anything.

Everything is currently very bad. I'm barely functioning. There's nothing to be done.

I'm feeling really disappointed because I didn't get called for a second interview on Friday for a job I really wanted. I'm still hoping that I'll make the second round and that they're just behind on scheduling and they'll call on Mon. Had a really nice AA women's meeting this morning - it was our christmas meeting, so everybody brought food and it was all really yummy. Sitting in my apartment now I'm feeling a little lonely.

sorry to hear, that has to be tough. I am an anxiety sufferer as well so I know the feeling allllll too well.

my tooth is better thanks to the miracle of extra strength tylenol

Cyran0,

I am so sorry to hear that you aren't doing well. You say there is nothing to be done, but I'd like to offer you a hug if I can.

((((Cyran0))))))

Splitimage,

Sorry to hear you haven't been called yet. But you know, You are right, they could simply be behind on scheduling or maybe interveiws didn't conclude on time or it could be any number of things.

Your meeting sounds fun. Tonight we all had fish chowder at my moms, and it was a meeting of all the family women - very fun.

sorry to hear your lonely. Heres a hug! ((((splitimage))))

How's everyone doing today? I'm doing well. I usually meet with a sponsee on Sundays but she's sick so I was gonna enjoy just staying in. I started talking to a friend online and we both did a 5th step together. It was fantastic. Then I decided to go to the meeting she was going to, so I got an unexpected meeting. Now I'm eating something before my pool league, where I'll get to see other friends in recovery. Shaping up to be a good Sunday.

I'm tired and so scared...... last night at his work dinner party...... he got the "itch" and drank one after another after another....... so afraid others will discover about him and then will ruin his career. will loose his job
and he'll take me to rock-bottom with him.

I feel so alone.........

Awww Mandyfins
my mum used to go thru that with my dad.
We don't have him anymore
and wierd my mum misses his breath with
alcohol on it....

Me today I have a headache
maybe because to avoid alcohol
I had chocolate!!!!
there was a wedding for my dear friends
daughter.We were pregnant together
(her daughter my son)
but I declined going to the reception
because I didn't want to be tempted
with drink.Especially since my son went into
hospital again the day of the wedding.

I'm feeling stressed, reflective, lonely, and sad, and half hoping maybe I'll still get a call for a second interview today. This whole being unemployed thing is driving me nuts.
