Date Posted: Sun, Dec 12 2010, 7:22:49 In reply to: Alice 's message, "Re: So Desperate for help" on Fri, Dec 03 2010, 5:52:45 I am not a Billbot but here is a passage fro the so called "Big Book" that literally saved my ass in rehab, when I was sure I was going to die: "And acceptance is the answer to ALL my problems today. When I am disturbed, it is because I find some person, place,thing, or situation-some face of my life-unacceptable to me, and I can find no serenity until I accept that person, pace, thing, or situation as being exactly the way it is supposed to be at that moment. Nothing, absolutely nothing, happens in God's (or a power greater than myself...paraphrase) world by mistake. Until I could accept my "addiction (paraphrased), I could not stay sober; unless I accept my life completely on life's terms, I cannot be happy. I need to concentrate not so much on what needs to be changed in the world as non what need to be changed in me and in my attitudes." Alice...that is my wish for you.
