    So last night I got gripped with a paralyzing fear , I was legitatmal (sp) frozen in panic for a good hour or so and I thought of you Thoughts_Arrived.  I had a conversation with someone who works with me yesterday at work and we got just a bit snippy with each other but it really stuck with me and when I thought about it at home I started to think , this person hates me , they are going to leave this job and I am fucked , I am fucked.

    After taking a deep breath and thinking about it I realized I was just projecting how I assumed she felt and then started jumping ahead 10 steps on the ladder.

    Today coming into work , nothing but smiles and laughs.  It hit me again stop assuming what other people think. Just move forward with life.

    Again good advice for anyone but for some reason I thought of you Thoguhts.

    I hope everyone has a safe / healthy / Anxiety free New Years 

    I personal just plan on staying in as I do every year since I was 26 with my wife and watching some movies and eating some special gummy bears :)

     This was my birthday , I was rail with my now partner.  Then a friend. We have a daughter now.And this  message from ed may well of bèen about Israel at the time but what he is saying about how we all should live is a good watch. It made me think of you for both  reasons. 1. Life is simple . We are simple.
    2. I was standing with the now love if my life. And at the time we were just a group  of fans that were at a few gigs the  same. Now we have a wonderful  daughter in our 40's. 
    Its there  my friend. Let go and fly.
    I finally got around to the video, wow I've never heard Ed so fired up before.

    Thank you . I went  sober today and im so ill . I cant breathe properly  and i feel awful. Im going  to a drug and alcohol place tomorrow although  deep down i know i have a worse problem  and the drink and weed is all i have had to hide behind. I dont think  i can quit. But if i dont keep  trying i will be dead soon

    Rob, shame is such a complicated emotion.  It can be an impetus for change, but alternatively,  it can paralyse you and make you feel worse than you should.  Keep fighting, keep holding on.

    Our world, and your family’s world, would be lessened if you were not here.  Good luck tomorrow.  I hope that they will be able to help you.  (((Hugs)))

    I managed one day and now i cant cope. Ive been unable  to get out of bed and  im so low 
    I will never be able to quit everything esspecially  with this  brain. Home life and constant distress i live in. 
    My life is completely  fucked and has been a long long time.

    Phone to get earlier help or to cancel the appointment? Rob, do not cancel! Hang in there! You not drinking for three days all of a sudden (good on you!) is an adjustment for your body so there will be side effects. They will weaken over time. Do not give into drink and talk to your doctor! We all believe in you

    So proud of you! Hang in there. When you go to the doctor, you are able to report effects of you making strides toward better choices. The doctors will see your push forward despite feeling like you are wallowing in the deepest pit in hell. 

    Don't give up.

    I concur with the above.
    Do not give up.
    It is withdrawal symptoms it sounds like. 
    Ask your doctor if they can give you anything to alleviate the symptoms.

    I can only imaging what your body is going thru right now but in the end it will be worth it. I know we don't know each other personally but I think of you often and truly hope that this year you get the correct help you need. I know you have been trying and unable to find doctors that seem to help.

    My hope is that you can find a good one stick with it and post on here all you all the time we are here for you.
