Hey John, and Trouble..
I totally agree... and it sure is refreshing to hear it on a site such as this !! So often we hear all the usual things, the usual admonishments about alcohol.. or self medication.. " The Usual Suspects"... But I'm really impressed to see the honesty.. the self awareness.. the real life support for real life realities... and the validation to a fellow member that they ARE making choices, and another human being is going to respect their choices, another human being is going to aknowledge the other persons intelligence and life struggles..
VERY cool... I really am impressed...
And John... I know you're in the thick of it at the moment.. I just wanted to throw out something I know you know.. that meds can have very limited impacts on "situational" influences on our lives.. You have a lot of heavy stuff on your plate at the moment, stuff that would get ANYONE down.. so, don't beat yourself up too much over those issues .. we have enough things to work on as it is, eh ?
BTW, you in the Pacific North West?? Just cuz the snow references.. LOL! I can relate !! They're talking about white outs on the radio as I write !
Best Wishes..
