The reason I'm acting as if I'm pregnant, is because I'm expecting. I should be accepting.

It is just not fair!  >

Naftali Z goes behind the curtain & the rest of us don't get to see anything from him anymore!  8)


It is already a month since he last posted in the public section of the forum....

ok ok - you got me, i'm really sorry - kinda fell off the 'public' forum for about a month as you said (and frankly, I haven't been posting that much on the private one either)

I'll try to get back to posting soon. (Realistically over the weekend or early next week) Definitely alot of stuff to write about...

Short version though:
on the positive side: I've been involved in a 12-step group, made good progress on Step 1, made some positive strides in my relationship with wife, and started doing a quasi-tapsic thing to supplement the 12-step stuff (although it's a bit crazy - and may have been a mistake - I'll write more on that later...)

on the negative side: acting-out-wise, the past month has been a complete mess. Although I'm slowly getting back to where I was before (about a week clean now) - but it has been an extremely rough month - one week I was acting out almost every other day...  and even now there are many extensive slips (last one was last night ).


I know that I need to keep on trucking (etc), and I do feel that the past month was full of positive steps that will I"H take me much closer to recovery... but in the interim - much much much work to be done

Thanks everyone for keeping me in mind (even when I myself don't )

I think, our acting out is a good indication of how well everything else is REALLY going.

Or, perhaps, we are ACTING better towards our wives so we think the relationship is improving.  BUT, we haven't changed our DESIRE to act nicely towards our wives.  Therefore, though on the surfact we might seem to be doing better, we are inside just getting more resentful.  It's the attitude that need the most work.

Just a thought.
