I got 27..but I may have taken my time over some of the answers:rolleyes: could have come out higher......I tried to answer as soon as I read the question....a more honest answer???

Quicker the better in my book, I do think you are more likely to end up with honest answers. So chris is normal as well Did it give what the scores meant? I don't remember seeing it:o

I used to know this guy who worked with psychopaths, he named a few very well known ones and said they sounded and looked as normal as you or I .

I am totally normal, I just can't understand why the rest of the world doesn't think like me, they must all be very strange.
Sometimes it really baffles me.

I know I come across as being somewhat flippant at times....I am not....I do believe in a higher self/beings.....when I say that it is me...I am trying to tell myself to have faith in myself and no-one else...sometimes I think that that is the most important thing..at other times I think that obviously hasn't worked so try something else!:rolleyes: I try not to believe in any one god.....I prefer to take the best bits from most of them (i.e. the bits we humans haven't corrupted with violence and malouvanlence);)

I'm trying to have faith in myself, which isn't easy after the battering it has taken over the years. I also know that my best thinking got me where I ended up - in a mess.
Like you, I take all the bits I like and then try to be guided by a spiritual being rather than a religious God
I hope this makes sense

hi all, quick update from me. i made my amends to the treatment centre i spoke about a few hundered posts back. it went well. the woman i saw asked a few times what made me be ready for getting well, i was a bit stumped. i think it was a few things altogether really. the phsical addiction of alcohol kicking in was one of them. and it had stopped getting my head !!!!ed. my body was. but it was'nt making the feelings i had go anymore. so at the time i thought well i either move on to smack, or i get some help.

I think thats the reason anyway. maybe i had just had enough. end of my path. god's time for me to carry the message. im still thinking as im typing, mad how one questiojn can set of a train of thought like this init?

but on the whole i feel good. i even feel willing to make amends to the bloke i thought was cracking on to my mrs. and i punched. so im showing some good improvment.

i got some [STRIKE]bins[/STRIKE] glasses today. some nice quicksilver ones with anti glare lens. for night driving. i have them on now and it seems werid. keep think of that men behaving badly were tony gets some and ends up washing them in peach shampoo, something i would prob have done a few weeks months ago. Thought i'd get them whilst on benifit as there cheaper that way. i paid £70 for some that should have cost £155. so saved a fair bit.

Hope everyone is ok. just thought i'd check in. let me know how you all are..... Lewt

me is still sober xxxx
