Last thing before I go to bed, I'm having Lasik surgery tomorrow. I should be able to see without correction for the first time since I was little. That should solve most of my emotional problems.
I'm also supposed to call a lady in admissions at the place I'm trying to get into. That makes me kind of mad. If I was capable of making phone calls and working out business deals, I doubt I'd be trying to get into a "place". but I'll do what I have to. If you don't hear from me, I'll be recuperating and recovering, or some combo, or you'll hear from me...or I'll be erased from history or whatever.

You still drinking?
Have you done alcohol residential treatment?
Was good for me.
Didn't work right away, but learned lots, and with the tools I learned, and help from my God, I DID quit.
I still dream of bing an old , old lady, and drinking myself to death eventually.
It was my whole world.
Still dunno how on earth I stopped really.
A miracle.
I hope one comes your way too James.
Take care
Muffled

> Where are you trying to get in?
---Menninger. They are an old and respected facility that moved here from the midwest several years ago. I was there for 30 days 2 years ago, but I was fighting everything. I just didn't get what they had to offer. But it is a full program on the grounds of the old spring shadows. Lot's of experts and groups and therapy. Out of Network, so the struggle is to convince insurance to let me stay the whole 6 weeks that they want. Once I reach my max out of pocket, everything else I might want to do will be free anyway.
But it's not enough to have my wife say I want and need to come in, apparently I have to do it. I hate calling people. I didn't call today because I slept too late. now I have to find out is it monday morning or is she around on the Weekend. they didn't have a bed right now anyway, but people come and go and I don't want to go in until my Wednesday follow eye appt. anyway. 2 beers today, 1/5 to 1/6 my input for the last week or so. exhaustion is going to kick my butt soon.
thanks for the encouragement Auntie

Thank you Muffled.
I'm going in to fix my head.
not drinking is going to have to be part of it.
I'm always going to have doubt about that.
But I'll have plenty of time to think about it with a clear head.I used to think I would die in the street.
It's hard to let go of ideas we figured out when we were children. "I'm not going to make it" "I don't have to do it their way, I can do nothing"
"If things ever get too hard I can (insert bad thing here)" "Someday they'll stop hurting me and I'll start hurting them." "I should be ashamed of myself" "This is what you get when you (insert bad thing here)" just ideas, some mine, some other's. sorry for the bring down.I better go to bed now,
goodnight,
james k

There was a thread one time on how so many of us thought that we'd never make it to....whatever age. And how shocked we were to realize we STILL here?
To me it means there MUST BE A PURPOSE for me to be here. There's something I supposed to do for good.
Otherwise there's just no way, no way I'd still be alive.
Truly its BIZZARE that I here at all.
So I gonna keep on struggling along and hope to do what I supposed to do here on this crazy earth.
I like you James, hope you can get some of that negative sh*t outta your head soon.
Take care,
Muffled
