I also think, stopping being what other people want you to be, is a very good idea:D Still working on that one, ingrained since birth:mad:

i thought i was scarred of the world and places...

in reality im scarred of being me....scarred of living my life..

the alcohol was helping me to suppress the feelings a felt.....
and other stuff........

then the alcohol itself became a problem........

and 13 yers on here we are !!!!!

Well i havent packed yet. I dont really want to go. I feel i have to as my parents are getting on and my dad hasnt been so good. Its hard to leave my family here, even though its only for a week. Then when i leave my mum and dad there its hard
The saddest thing is i only see my parents maybe 3 times a year and the first time is such a shock, coz i notice how much they have aged:( My mum said today i`ve brought us a bottle of gin:o Bless she already has one in AA:)

ac why does super glue not dry in the tube?

jayne i can relate to seeing your parents age it makes me feel sad when i see it. i see them so much more now though i went to rugby with dad yesterday and just enjoyed spending the time with him... And thats thanks to AA.

I feel terribly guilty whenever I see my parents - I feel bad for pushing them away, but I can't seem to help it

It is good to read such vibrant posts. they show that people are well. Perhaps this sharing with other people works. lewt I am still in the Costa. I don't intend to be back in Scotland till June. It is part of the fringe benefits of sobriety. Instad of pi??ing my money against a wall I was able to save some and buy a little house in Spain. I am like the swallows, I migrate. Due to my wife's ill health we were a little late this year. The ISPs in Spain are terrible and I cannot even get on to the internet every night so I am not on here very often
