Feeling sad and depressed this morning. I think that my Crohn's Disease is kicking up is also a factor. Sure as Hell isn't helping.

So many depressing images. I know their the past. I know they can't hurt me anymore, but they hurt now and I'm REALLY craving a drink too.

Good thing I'm at work and the liquor stores aren't open.

I really want to get drunk.

But I won't. Not now, anyway.

Scot :(
 
thanks roland, but I feel another thing coming. Fell myself diassociating, my mind shutting down whixh is good I suupose, since I have a class to teach and I can get rthru it on autopilot, but also losing my emotions and having trouble even typing, as I guess can be seen.

Gets easier to give up too, when you have no real emotions to tap into.

Guess I'm asking for help. Scared.

Scot,

Thanks for reaching out and asking for help. I have a lot of trouble trusting enough to be able to do that and you just did a great job of showing me how it is done.

The pain you are going through comes through your words so clearly it hurts me even to read them.

How much more for you to experience it first hand I cannot even imagine.

I'm not going to tell you that you shouldn't feel that way; or that it's not important or anything like that.

I would like to ask you to remember that as you ride through these waves of suffering and sorrow, that you are not alone; that you are loved and that this too shall pass----probably not soon enough to suit us----but this will pass.

Hang on, buddy. Or let go. Do as you need to take care of yourself. A drink is not the answer, we all know that.

Take it one thing, one hour or even one minute at a time.

And keep reaching out for help. We're here for you.

And I'm so sorry that you have to go through this.

Your brother,
 
One moment at a time my friend, one moment at a time...don't take a drink for this moment...focus on what it is you are doing...you will make it through....
 
Scot,

I don't know what Cron's is, but I'm sorry you are sick. I can relate so much with how miserable it is to be sick, and how it can make you more depressed. I hope that you are feeling better now.

I have had some trouble with drink in the past. I am not an alcoholic, although my father is, and I think maybe we as a culture are predestined to it. But drinking makes me feel very good, very energized and 'hyper', and then helps me sleep. None of which feels at all bad. So I have fear that I could 'use' it wrongly, and too much. I hope that you have goten through this without causing yourself further trouble.

Please know that you are thought of, and well thought of.

Leosha
