Sabbatical. Self-imposed. Didn't want to be the rotten apple that spoils the bunch but I realized how much I needed this eutopia to dump my brain droppings.

I love this place. We're a steaming melting pot of perspectives. Small enough so the real losers out there don't bother to bother us. Anyways, I wouldn't expect many people here to understand the horror you're living right now but I do. Just wanted you to know you're not a special little snowflake.

You're online which means you're still coherent to reality which means you can still be SAVED, praise Heyzous! The worst is over man. Take your licks from Lady Justice and keep us in the know. Most of all take care of you. You want to bullshit privately I'm sure Hubski supports. I'm no rolemodel but I can definitely share stories and advice.

Now I just have to figure out how to be an atheist in AA who thinks it's a cult that's set back addiction medicine for years. But it's the biggest game in town so what are you going to do?

My best friend was an atheist in AA. He told me later that in the beginning he just had me be his higher power. Then he switched to trees.

Good luck taco.

Similarly, you could consider a spirit animal or an earthly location or object as a source of focus and empowerment. You don't have to be super spiritual about it and still having something like that might help immensely.

I think I'm going to go with vodka as my higher power. It's smooth and versatile but powerful. I'm powerless against it. And it's a god you don't want to piss off.
