My sponsor & others at my home group often say, "Time to do a 552." Page 552 of the Big Book deals with ridding ourselves of our biggest resentments -- look it up.

what I've heard is FEAR = F*** everything and run or face everything and recover. Good one . . .

It's alcoholism, not alcoholwasm.
Applies to all addictions - - the disease doesn't go away! |

These are great. I forgot about the other FEAR ones. I like those better. 449 acceptance was a big part of my home group and I believe it. Acceptance and surrender doesn't mean we quit moving forward.

Hello All !!!!
I was in therapy today and I wanted to explain to her how it felt sometimes when I took a drink. I wasn't quite sure how to describe it so she would understand. This is what popped into my head, "The man takes a drink, the drink takes a drink, the drink takes the man." That could only have come from AA. Thank you for this thread. I am getting a lot out of it and having fun at the same time.

Here are a couple of good ones (every time I go to a meeting lately, I keep my ears perked for sayings that haven't been posted here yet):
It's a "we" program, not an "I" program. If you want to drink/use, that's your business. If you want to stay clean/sober, that's our business. |

How about "We're all here because we're not all here?"

"Don't let them live in your head rent free" was always a favorite I've heard!
