Thank you for your post Monica.
Yes the tv ads definitely do it for me . I wonder how many others find them a problem.
So I am on day 7- a full week – and feeling positive- I read Jaykay’s thread from start to finish last night and found it very motivating – just shows it can be done .
Today I am not feeling so strong when It comes to a negative person in my life . If you have been reading my thread I will have described this person as an interrogator (Celestine Prophesy). You didn’t? Why did you? Why didn’t you ? Did you? It’s like keeping a running record on every mistake and somehow it is very deflating . This person also has a gambling addiction.
Today I am feeling guilt as it has been a while since I saw this person and I know it is something which I have to do. It also has been the trigger for practically every relapse I have ever had.
Life is never simple- we can’t always just cut people out of our lives because it helps us stay clean .
Some relationships are too close , too important, too deep.
I am planning a trip to visit – I’m not sure how to avoid a relapse – maybe my new mindset will help – maybe I can find a ga meeting nearby.
Life is never simple .
