260 days sober. What am I fighting for , this a question I ask myself every day. Currently at the moment trying to make things work with my kids mother , fighting to have a constant relationship with my son. Everything I suggest is a no or my son is not comfortable. I'm trying to stay out of court I did that once and I seen that reaction on my kids mother. I dropped things and let things be. I just want a relationship with my son and no more fights with my kids mother. I worked very hard to get sober 5 months and 2 days in at saint Christophers inn garrison NY and currently in NYC sober house. They say keep coming back. Today I was pushed to my breaking point. I so wanted a beer to take the pain away.

Fn pain ain't going newhere...lord knows if it cd be drown it wd be gone but no...I saw smwhere (martial arts?) Pain will leave when it's done teaching us what we need to learn...skool of life I spoze...it's OK to feel to experience the pain...don't fight it. I don't anymore...I just feel and observe it and now more than ever try not to identify with it (as my ego has in the past) that somehow I am all my pain since that's all I've experienced for so long..it's so familiar/comfortable in its hurting ache yet no....it too shall pass?

Just keep reminding yourself that the VERY temporary relief of that beer will not last. You know the repercussions of taking that drink will be far worse than any relief you get.
