Yeah, I will try to eat the other half later.

Hey, wait a minute...this was your thread! LOL I won't hijack it again...I swear.

I just wanted you to know that whether you know it or not, you do help...a lot.

Now, as for you...don't lose hope, ok? If I can eat again, then you can stop drinking again..right? Maybe not tonight, but tomorrow you can try again. I won't give up on you.....ever.

We all need reminders now and again K_J. Even MYSELF!!!!..

I'd rather see you smothering everyone with your love rather than go back to
the old harmful ways! We need you around here!!...

I don't think so. Think about this...here in the States in certain areas it is gorgeous outside and lots of people are out enjoying the sun. Maybe they just are out? Maybe they are in chat? Maybe they don't come to this section of the board?
I don't think I am the only one that cares. Even if I am....that's ok because one person can make a difference.
You have made a huge difference in my life lately.

Please don't give up. I need ya! Getting closer and closer to the edge Getting closer and closer to the edge

(((KJ )))) Getting closer and closer to the edge Getting closer and closer to the edge

i do not normally read this forum and thats why i wasnt aware of the time you're having now...

remember hon, that you matter to a great many people, that you are loved and appreciated....

i know how hard it is to be the one others turn to, how hard it is to be the one who cannot fall.. i know its impossible to be perfect in every way...

i know the feelings you are having very well.. i have been there... its important not to beat yourself up hon....

its important to remember what the others have said... how much you matter... and of course, you cant do this for us hon... you need to do it for you....

i have been in your place... ive slipped, ive started over... you can make it too...

all the ground you've made is not lost for one mistake... true, the count starts over... but you are not a failure KJ... you slipped....

accept yourself and the truth that you are imperfect.. we all are imperfect in one way or another...

you are still my friend....

((nowheretorun)) Getting closer and closer to the edge

thank you...that's a weight off my shoulders...

IRL people always say i'm unbreakable, 100% reliable, the one to always

turn to etc...

it means i feel i can never publicly be seen to fail...

guess i expected people here to reject one failure...

but thank you for pointing out it's not a failure but a slip...anyone can get

back up from a slip and start over...like a slip on the ice yes?

and thank you for still counting me as a friend...friendship means a lot to

me.

Hey there KJ, one slip is not the end of the world.

The important this is to stop, learn from the mistake and start over. Or that's at least what they kept telling us in rehab. I can't count how many time's i've had to start over, but the people here at PC were amazingly supportive after my last relapse. We all know how seductive addiction can be.

You don't always have to be strong. It's totally ok to need and ask for help. It took me way too long to figure that out. And it made my recovery that much harder.

From what i've seen of you here on PC you're a really caring person. Remember that, and good for you on pouring the second can down the drain.

awww thank you. i think the hardest thing to learn for me is to ask for help and support. the second hardest thing is to believe there will actually be any coz...weird as it may sound to some...i think i'm the least loveable person on the planet.

but thanks for your input and letting me know a slip is not the end of the world and that people here are supportive when it happens.

sorry i know this is a stupid post and it's more for me than anybody else...just telling myself...

nope, i don't suck, i poured away can two, fought the urge for hours to go buy more, realized what an idiot i was being and keep reminding myself of the first time i went ice-skating...kept falling on my ***, kept getting back up and trying again...didn't make me feel like a failure that i kept falling on my butt, made me feel like a tryer coz i kept getting back up!

so just reminding myself...not a failure for one slip...just gotta stay up now that i'm back up. Getting closer and closer to the edge
