Merry Xmas Day 30 Bah Humbug
Merry Christmas to every body. I'm celebrating this day with day 30. Whoo hoo, I just don't seem to be all that happy about it today. I guess I'm wishing for a White Christmas. But I know that would be a mistake. It will be the 1st time for me to celebrate at my parents in 5 years. I'm so friggen nervous about going over there because all my brothers and sisters will be there. I started taking Celexa this week but I'm not so sure it is working. I just want this day to be over with. AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH
Hope all you guys have a Very Merry Christmas

Back After 30 In The Desert
My Dear Brothers and Sisters, I am sooooooooo very much excited to be back amongst the living and you all. For those of you who didnt know and those who do remember..... back in the beginnning of Sept. I was on the verge of suicide and ready to call it a day. Then the Lord had me hold on just a little while longer. I left and went to treatment out in California to a place called Axis. This was the most wonderful and beautiful experience of my life. I learned that the drugs werent really the problem only a temporary solution. I got to the root issues of things, FULLY restored my relationship with the Lord, and learned how to live sober daily. I am now back in Kansas City and continuing my journey. I am going to a mix of meetings; CA, NA, AA, AND FOOTPRINTS SPIRITUAL 12 STEP, and a men's fellowship with my brothers at my church. ALSO YESTERDAY I RECEIVED MY 30 DAY CHIPS FROM AA AND CA. I am so much in love and living for the Lord these days. Yesterday I am loving life and letting my Lord Jesus be in control. Life is so wonderful with Him in the forefront. I so much want to thank you all for the prayers before I left. Thank you Gertie for delivering my message. Thank you all for the prayers. :praying You all deserve the big group hug :ghug. I will continue to serve HIM till the day he brings me home. I have seen so many miracles in my life in only this one short week of being home. I'm even looking forward to going back to California to pick up my 6 month and 1 year chip. I have a group of friends there now and we keep in touch daily. I just want to encourage everyone to remain steadfast in the Lord and depend soley on Him, doing His will and not ours. HE DOES CHANGE LIVES IF WE LET HIM. LOVE TO YOU ALL. Darryl, aka Want2Live4Him
Another mental health related relapse
My brothers and sisters:
I suffer from PTSD and have for the last 14 years. Prior to that, I stayed clean for 18 years, but the emotional agony I experience some days makes it impossible to function. So I end up smoking weed because it numbs the PTSD.
The only problem is that once I smoke that first joint, I am gone on another binge.
How can I deal with this better. I can't afford any more relapses. I can't:c004:

I’m OUTTA HERE!!!!!!
To all my brothers and sisters in Christ, as I stated up top "IM OUTTA HERE" I am making that great big move in the morning. I'm getting on one of those thick vessels and going to a great residential treatment facility. I cant do it on my own, but my Lord has made a way for this to happen. It is scary but I'm soooooooo looking forward to it. No matter what I must go. I WILL have a great praise report in October for you all. If they have an internet I'll keep in touch that way. Please pray for me and the new man that the Lord will reveal, one able to serve Him, and do HIS will not mine. Thank you all so much for your support and prayers. I am soooooooooooo looking forward to this. God Bless Everyone.:bday8:ghug
Prayer request:
Hello Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
As many of you know, I love to share the gospel with others. I went through the evanglism explosion class 3 times at my church and so there are always opportunities for me to share w/ women in NA etc.
the other night I had the opportunity to share and pray with a women I will call Jane. She was really hurting. She has 20 months clean but has a fairly new baby, a husband who just left her and just miscarried. She has to have surgery as a result on Tuesday. She also has a 5 year old little girl.
My prayer is that her Christian life would take root and she would grow, that God would save her husband and that he would return, and for the Lord to heal her broken heart and heal her physically. Pray I would be able to minister to her as well, and pray other ppl would come along and help her too. I hear she has little groceries. I am taking her dinner and some stuff on Tuesday. It is just a shame that she is suffering so, but anything for Gods glory.
Thanks! Sheila
