Alcohol Recovery Group 9 years, 4 months agoYes Jess your 100% right. There’s nothing that will ensure peaceful sobriety as much as helping out another drunk. Or any other goodwill effort towards the world that you may encounter. As in my case it’s my elderly family and my dog.

David Tassn replied to the topic How can we not regret the past. in the forum
Men in Recovery 9 years, 5 months agoWell, regret is basically defined as feeling sorry and or guilty and frustrated about the past. Regretting the past would be my only recourse if i believed that all of the people i hurt was due to a simple lack of willpower … THIS..is where the fault lies. But this wreckage isnt just when drunk..the ‘disease’ is present even when theres no…[Read more]

Friends and Family 9 years, 5 months agoThis is an excellent read for those friends, family and loved ones of an alcoholic. The path is not always an easy one. This article shows how great life can be in sobriety. https://emptyingthejunkdrawer.wordpress.com/2016/06/27/what-i-learned-by-staying-the-other-side-of-alcoholism/

B-rad started the topic Disease of mind AND body in the forum
Alcohol Recovery Group 9 years, 5 months agoI recall distinctly, after going out on another binge, my wife and in-laws asking me, “I don’t understand, when your life and family and all you love is on the line, why you CHOOSE to drink.” The truth is, I didn’t understand it either. It was unexplainable. I had been in the program of AA for over a decade, with several long stretches of…[Read more]

B-rad replied to the topic How can we not regret the past. in the forum
Men in Recovery 9 years, 5 months agoThe 9th step promises DO come true. “We will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door on it.” Nobody came to AA on a winning streak. Our past is our past. I am grateful for the hand of AA for helping me to learn more about myself in recovery than I ever knew about myself before recovery.

B-rad started the topic Easing God Out in the forum
Alcohol Recovery Group 9 years, 5 months agoMy ego has gotten me into a lot of trouble throughout my life. Its said that most alcoholics, myself included, are egomaniacs with an inferiority complex. How true that statement is.
Ever since I can remember, I just wanted to be liked. I wanted to be accepted. I wanted to have what other people had. So everything I did, I did for me. Rarely did…[Read more]

Men in Recovery 9 years, 5 months agoI thought this would be a good topic because it wasn’t until I understood the reason why I was a chronic relapser that i was able to identify and come to terms with the defects that were hidden but killing me from the inside out. Â I also came to believe in the spirit.
