I have gotten stuck in my owen head and when I GET WITH THAT ITTY BITTY SHITTY COMMITTY ITS BAD. I feel lost and that is danger for me.

Hi, beebee. Welcome to the forums.

I had that feeling some time back. It lasted for several years. Then I got involved in General Service. Everything was so different. It was like being a newcomer again.

Anyway, glad you're here!

i know the feeling dont give up i relapsed after 9 years and its been 4 and i cant get back

This is my first time here...I had 15yrs. and lost it...so we are not unique? Anyway I am back and it feels good. Now I am ready to do some work. Never idolize anyone and remember to keep coming back because it works...(if you work it). wink!

BeeBee,

I know that feeling. I have had it. I think maybe a lot of us have. I really don't have the an answer for how I got through it. I just kept on doing what I knew I needed to. Most of the time thinking nothing was going to work. I worked with newcomers, went to more meetings, prayed more and talked with my sponsor all the time ........ nothing seemed to help. Then one day I noticed that I was feeling a little bit better. I don't know why, nor did I question it. I knew right then that I was going to be ok again. Just trust in what you know to be ture and as was told to me "this to shall pass". I hated to hear it but it is true.
Take care and trust in yourself.

Hi Thanks for sharing, I felt this way and went right to fourth step and wrote it out when my thinking got in the way. Hope your feeling better, were here for you. It's a we program and we care.

Hi, do you think you might have some time to to do volunteer work. I have found that it is very fulfilling and makes you feel really good about yourself, plus it gives you something to do that keeps your mind busy and focused on something that makes you happy. It's a thought. Hope you feel better soon
