Sci, I just finished reading your thread in one go!

I haven't been here for some time but, after reading about you in the email I was triggered to know more.

To tell you the truth, a lot of our members including yours truly are jealous of you.

To have your wife as a supporter is every ex addicts dream! I tried to involve my wife by showing her some GYE stuff, useless.

As there are wife’s who read GYE with their husbands (Not like your wife but still involved) maybe your wife should start writing in your thread explaining and guiding from experience?

It could help establish many homes, knowing that others got through it and stayed together recovering nicely.
If you will pick up the chalenge it could explain why you hade to go through all the suffering and pain.

In the mean time, ahooi warrior!


Working on ides with my wife to talk to guard about.  THANKS

Oh, from the things you write, I like starting my day off crying!

Also, you brought home an important point to me - sometimes I feel like this is easy, and that I'm sure I'll be fine. I need to remember that that's not the case - i have to constantly be on guard, and constantly aware of the risks and danger.

I was stunned today when I saw the trigger.  I froze up for about 2 minutes.  I couldn't move.  But I know it was a test from G-d to make me remember, hey you, stop thinking its a cake walk.  Work harder.  Triggers do exsist and G-d does too.  I'll take G-d's side anytime!!!

Sci what a post. Ive seen this so many times before. By myself and by friends as well. As soon as we start getting comfortable he sends a message, chill out dude, take things slow. Its like the famous story of the rabbit and the turtle. We have to realize that this is one step at a time , ALWAYS. we can never get away from that.

But i am truly amazed at your way of dealing with it. Its one more reason to be thankful to HAshem for your wonderfl wife. And the lesson youve learnt and how you took it as a positve are absolutly beautifel. Keep up the great work!! Keep on trucking!! We are all so happy for you. Not so much because you didnt fall, but rather because you are starting to have a whole different mindset. And that is the true purpose behind the 90 days.

My mindset is changing for sure.  But I now know what a flick to the forhead by G-d feel like.  I am so glad it happened and turning even more so.  G-d is great and has given me this challenge for a reason.  I think I know why he did it.  It was not just about hey slow down.  It was to clarify some thougts in my head for the past 10 days or so.

Hey Sci, sounds like you've been holding up really well through these difficult times.

It's great you have so much support from your wife, too.

Keep up the GREAT work.

I can really relate.  It could be that sometimes NOT thinking about this whole issue is the best strategy.

Especially when times are harder for us.

  Keep on going!

Ditto. This has been my best strategy so far. NOT thinking about it.
