Breathe and remember that you’ve been in this place before. You’ve been this uncomfortable and anxious and scared, and you've survived. Breathe and know that you can survive this too. These feelings can’t break you. They're painful and debilitating, but you can sit with them and eventually, they will pass. Maybe not immediately, but sometime soon, they are going to fade and when they do, you'll look back at this moment and laugh for having doubted your resilience. I know it feels unbearable right now, but keep breathing, again and again. This will pass. I promise it will pass. ― Daniell Koepke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest [in...] Posted March 23, 2015 Share Posted March 23, 2015 http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/21/Adams_The_Tetons_and_the_Snake_River.jpg Stop comparing where you're at with where everyone else is. It doesn't move you farther ahead, improve your situation, or help you find peace. It just feeds your shame, fuels your feelings of inadequacy, and ultimately, it keeps you stuck. The reality is that there is no one correct path in life. Everyone has their own unique journey. A path that’s right for someone else won’t necessarily be a path that’s right for you. And that’s okay. Your journey isn’t right or wrong, or good or bad. It’s just different. Your life isn’t meant to look like anyone else’s because you aren’t like anyone else. You’re a person all your own with a unique set of goals, obstacles, dreams, and needs. So stop comparing, and start living. You may not have ended up where you intended to go. But trust, for once, that you have ended up where you needed to be. Trust that you are in the right place at the right time. Trust that your life is enough. Trust that you are enough. ― Daniell Koepke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flutie, I actually added your name to my question, inviting you to be the first to respond, then thought twice and went back and deleted it. I know you too well by now, I guess, hah. Okay, so I guess seeing as I initiated it, it's only fair I play the game, huh? The first thing *I'd* do? Hmmmm ...

[...] Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 “You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.” ~Jim Rohn Call it a clan, call it a network, call it a tribe, call it a family. Whatever you call it, whoever you are, you need one. But not just any one. Energies are contagious so surround yourself with people who reflect who you want to be and how you want to feel. By choosing who you spend time with, you are literally shaping your own future. Who is in your core circle? Examine the people you spend the most time around. Consider if these people are enabling you toward your ideal self (Do they match who you want to become in the future?). If they are not, identify people who do embody qualities you desire and increase contact with them... Soon your "friend average" will be a source of strength and positive vibes.

[La...] Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 FluterByeeBaby, our dear Insomniac is a lovely gal who would never "give you a slap". However, I'm sure we can have a little guess as to what you might have wanted to write! I did ponder whether I could write what first came to my mind as well, but I decided against it. We've got to keep the level of discourse high around here, right?! Good to see you around these parts, my dear. Hope you're doing well. It's spring in Canada, by the way, and the birds are busy doing what birds do in the spring. By the time you bring your Texan self up north of the 49th parallel, it'll be lush and green and in full bloom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SO LAPS...MY FRIEND...YA GONNA MEET ME AT THE TRAIN I'M STILL IN AN INTERNAL STRUGGLE ABOUT GETTING ON THAT DANG PLANE; HOWEVER, I KNOW IT WILL BE BEAUTIFUL IN CANADA. I WENT TO MY DOC, AND HE GAVE ME A SCRIPT FOR CLONODINE TO TRY. THEY ARE HAVING GOOD LUCK USING IT FOR WDing FROM OPIATES AND BENZOS. LET'S PRAY I'M ONE OF THE ONES IT HELPS. I CAN'T REMEMBER...DID I TELL YOU THAT WE ARE ALSO GOING ON A WHALE WATCHING TOUR? NOW, THAT IS EXCITING ALWAYS GOOD TO HEAR FROM YOU LAPPIEPOOH ARE YOU DOING OKAY?

[La...] Posted March 24, 2015 Share Posted March 24, 2015 Holy Hectiration, FluterByeeBaby, I need to get a new dictionary just to understand the Texas lingo! I like "Dang" a lot. It's got a good strong sound to it while still being acceptable to the general public. And "crazy as a loon" is quite nice too. You can use it here, since we have some lovely loons on the lake. Also, the one dollar coin is called a "Loonie" so I'm sure you can collect them while you're here and share them with your loonie friends back home. We don't have "hurricane shutters" here, but I'm glad you have them down there. Batten down the hatches if you see one of those big storms coming, okay? You must keep our dear Fluter safe. She's ever so precious to all of us here! Watching whales sounds fab! Awe-inspiring, I'm sure. I completely support watching animals in their natural habitats, but let's not lock them up or make them do flips for us or anything silly. And as for benzo withdrawal, all I can say is I wish you well. I know nothing about the other meds to try, but if you've checked it out and you're ready to give it a go, then I wish you strength and healing. I wish that for everyone here. I'm still a "Dizzy Dame" on this, my 22nd month off the benzo beasties. It's a bit milder today than yesterday's wavy waters, but I admit that I'm a little low on the "oomph" to get through it. Need some oomph. Want some oomph. Hoping for more oomph. Anyway, I'm glad that the Texan birds are doing what birds do all over the place! Be gentle with the sparrows, okay, Fluter? They're just being birds. Huge hugs going out to you and all who visit here, Lapis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[eg...] Posted March 25, 2015 Share Posted March 25, 2015 (This quote spoke to me because of my own crossroads - I believed at the time it was a tradagy when in fact it was a blessing. The fallout was benzo dependance and the process of getting well has led me to God as I understand Him.) "Most people who have suffered great losses in their lives— great tragedies— come to a crossroads. Maybe not right then, but when the shock wears off. It may be months later; it may be years. They either expand as a result of their experience, or they contract. If that sounds New Age- y— and I suppose it does— I don’t apologize. I know what I’m talking about."
