I was trapped in my MIND! Recovery is a process
Вставка
- Опубліковано 1 чер 2024
- In my active alcoholism I was trapped in my mind! For every conflict, engagement, family event, and milestones.. I lived every moment in my mind. Reality and fantasy were always the same to me. In my early sobriety, it was uncomfortable to have to try and separate the two and to make a conscious effort to live in the moment and outside of my head. Learning how to separate the two does take time, but it will happen the longer you stay sober. Be well, my friends, and thank you for being here!

From a person with a problem often seen as one to a real hero
way to go my guy
I appreciate the support and motivation, my friend. It's absolutely my privilege to be able to. 💯
This is SO TRUE…that’s exactly what happens to our loved one…he strikes out at whoever makes a comment to him & remembers when he is in his blackout stage…and then regrets especially when he can read what he said to others especially and usually to those who do care about him…his mental battle is strong and ongoing…but we know this is something he has to do on his own…no one can do this…just love and support him…never giving up on him…he matters…
Yep.
Thank you …. Ive been a functional alcoholic for 7 to 8 years I have a 3 years old daughter and this disease is just ruining my life but listening to you makes me feel better ,better than any priest has ever made me feel …thank you this is hard.
As someone who has had dissociation problems since childhood, compounded by CPTSD and marijuana abuse I know exactly what you are talking about. Living in my head is natural for me as it is, but once the rage and frustration about injustices I've faced begin to set in and fester the discomfort is unbearable (numbing out with marijuana) All of this rage leads to a boiling point of blacking out in rage where all concerns about consequences are thrown out the window. This is a terrifying place to be, I feel out of control and I do a lot of things I regret.
I can't go on like this anymore, I've spent enough time isolating and figure all this out in my mind. It's time to take action with the knowledge and experience I've gained. Thanks for putting out content and helping out those who need it
Hang in there, my friend, you can break the cycle one day at a time and through outward expression (positive). If there's anything that I can help with don't hesitate to let me know.
Digging your videos
Awesome..Thank you for watching! ODAAT 💯
Glad you stepped up for your son. Better late than never. Can't tell you were a drinker anymore compared to your old photos. I remember blacking out, losing stuff, messing up my back, throwing stuff. You seem like a good man without the alcohol. I hope your marriage prospers.
I appreciate the support friend.. Gratefully, my marriage is whole, and my relationship with my son is solid! Without alcohol influencing my response to life, I have been able to discover the best version of who I am, and that has enabled me to be an equal partner in my relationships instead of a variable. I hope today is treating you well, Shawn, and thank you for sharing. ODAAT
