DS, you are forever in my heart. Thank you for sharing your beautiful spirit with me. I will always try to live by the example you have set. I love you and miss you every day and am sorry you had to go so soon, it just doesn't seem fair.

you know? the wave of pain? It was normally brought on by "magical thinking" As a good friend told me:
"It is also important to recognize that we feed our addiction with our minds. It is a bitch. An alki has to go buy and drink the booze; a junky has to score and shoot the dope, all we have to do is replay the past or fantasize about the future. "
My gosh, this is my struggle every day now...

It was for me too, Lost.
With continued NC, it gets better. But your efforts have to be consistent. Don't let yourself be sucked back into fantasyland.

If you keep asking people to give you the benefit of the doubt, they will eventually start to doubt your benefit.
