Good day

I have been taking stock since i got back from recovery of all the people in my life lately. Mostly because i dont see any of them . I realized im not ok with that and the ones i do see just want something or me to work , never just for friendship. I looked at it, even partying i was always there to help, give a hand or what ever. Since i been back its pretty quit around my place. Its all the people i didnt party with thats been a let down . So today i started to clean house a bit and took control of the fair weather needy friends and metioned that to a few. I been sober well over a year and im sick of the judgement and attude sometimes. It gets old. And it felt good to tell a couple of people that talk lcrap behind my back to f off and dont come back

I hear ya! Do you got to any meetings because those rooms are filled w people who actually care about u and your recovery. They will just listen if that's what you need...w no judgement because they've been there themselves...and if you need a hand they are more than willing to help you w no expectations and nothing in return! It's what keeps us sober! They are some wonderful people!

Ben, good for you! I had to let all my party friends go. I made real friends in AA/NA & CA. People that are givers like me. People that understand me. We got each other’s backs :facepunch:
I’m here for you bro

Ya i do when I can I still do counciling to some days the frustrations get to me . Just tired of people thinking im stupid or dont know when try talking down at me. Makes me want to slap them . Meetings here are once a week so I try to do online if im working but thats not the same

I go to meetings all over the place because I live in a rural area and they are few and far in between. I mean the towns are spread out but I go. They keep me accountable and I get so much from people sharing. My higher power is doing so much in my life right now. My attitude...my outlook...I actually have hope for a better life! And I haven't had that for a long time! Work your steps and give it over to your higher power...watch the miracles happen ...it's mind blowing!! Trust me! Keep reaching out as well...we all care about you and want to help! You are in the right place! I have faith in you!
