I still live life on such a survival thread. A check I am due is lost and it will take probably about 2 weeks to catch up. I'm devastated. I don't see it as a lesson learning to live on less. I am full of frustration, anger and impotence. There is no way I am not going to get the check but I can't see any good at it.
I feel stuck but obviously I am not. I guess I just like the familiar feeling of looking to blame others rather than being able to get on with it.
Aloha Maresie!! You see the picture very clearly and I can hear a former sponsor's voice, "So now what are you going to do?" Of course he meant what part of my recovery process would I turn to again. The opposite of fear is faith and the opposite of frustration is patience. Then I needed something or someone else to go support.
I don't like when I get frustrated...I get so sick of it I just want to change from feeling it quickly. Thank my HP for the program.
