Topic: RE: ~SPIRITUAL NOT RELIGIOUS~ A DAY AT A TIME
Like many.. I was very much a loner with thoughts of everyone has friends and is happy. Doesn't anyone see that I'm here.. ??
today.. much better.. now I realize just about everyone has those thoughts at one time or other
and I'm quite "normal" ..
hugssss to you Trish

05/29 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
When we first reached The Program and for the first time in our lives stood among people who seemed to understand, the sense of belonging was exhilarating. We felt that the problem of isolation had been solved. We soon discovered, however, that while we weren't alone any more, in a social sense, we still suffered many of the old pangs of anxious apartness. Until we had talked with complete candor of our conflictions, and had listened to someone else do the same thing, we still didn't belong. Step Five was the answer. HAVE I FOUND THROUGH THE FIFTH STEP THE BEGINNING OF TRUE KINSHIP WITH MY FELLOWS AND GOD?
TODAY I PRAY
May God help me learn to share myself, my attributes and my failings, not just as I take the Fifth Step but in a continuing give-and-take process with my friends. May I cultivate an attitude of openness and honesty with others, now that I have begun to be honest with myself. May I remember who I used to be -- the child in a game of hide-and-seek, who hid so well that nobody could find her/him and everyone gave up trying and went home.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
I will be open to friendship.
STEP 5 - Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs.

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

Topic: RE: ~SPIRITUAL NOT RELIGIOUS~ A DAY AT A TIME
Prior to recovery, I hated myself so much, I lashed out at people, and did not let anyone close. It was as if I was not going to let anyone close enough to reject me, so I made them keep their distance.

05/25 REFLECTION FOR THE DAY
When we're new in The Program, we're novices at reaching out for friendship -- or even accepting it when it's offered. Sometimes we're not quite sure how to do it or, indeed, whether it will actually work. Gradually, however, we become restored; we become teachable. We learn, for example, as Moliere wrote, "The more we love our friends, the less we flatter them." JUST FOR TODAY, WILL I NOT SHOW ANYONE THAT MY FEELINGS ARE HURT?
TODAY I PRAY
May God help me to discover what true friendship is. In my new relationships, I pray that I may not be so eager for approval that I will let myself be dishonest -- through flattery, half-truths, false cheeriness, protective white lies.
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER

Topic: RE: Psych Eval
I had mine a couple of weeks ago and hadn't heard anything, I was getting worried. I have seen her for other things for about 2 years so I felt comfortable enough calling and asking if she thought I was "crzay". LOL! She assured me that I was just fine and no, you are far from crazy. She did remind herself that I am very impatient...Anyways, she's just swamped and knew she had 2 plus months left. So, don't put more stress on yourself than you already do, it will fine and it will work out. I know it's hard but try not to worry.
Topic: RE: Psych Eval
I was a wreck waiting for everything. I thought for sure that I would be turned down for my surgery because of my psychiatric diagnoses. Just take it easy and trust the process. Most of us have been there.
