WITH US, TO DRINK IS TO DIE!

It is plain that a life which includes deep resentment leads only to futility and unhappiness. To the precise extent that we permit these, do we squander the hours that might have been worth while. But with the alcoholic, whose hope is the maintenance and growth of a spiritual experience, this business of resentment is infinitely grave. We found that it is fatal. For when harboring such feelings we shut ourselves off from the sunlight of the Spirit. The insanity of alcohol returns and we drink again. And with us, to drink is to die.

"Before we got clean, most of our actions were guided by impulse. Today, we are not locked into this type of thinking."

Life is a series of decisions, actions and consequences. When we were drinking and drugging, our decisions were usually driven by our disease, resulting in self-destructive actions and dire consequences. We came to see decision-making as a rigged game, one we should play as little as possible.

Dissociation Syndrome theoretical explanations.

a) Psychodynamic perspective - Freud as reference, basic human wishes tend to be in direct conflict with either reality or super-ego and that causes painful anxiety. As the ego mounts defense against this anxiety, maladaptive responses are employed by one.

b)Behavioral Theorists

Dissociation disorders results as the individual adopts a social role that is reinforced by its consequences. The rewarding consequences are protection from the stressful events.

c)Social-Cultural Theorists

The individual develops strategies which enable him/her get sympathy and escape responsibility for some actions performed by some irresponsible part of the individual.

d)Cognitive Theorists

Cognitive theorists hold that dissociative syndromes are disorders of memories. The individual loses certain aspects of their personal experiences, leaving skills and general knowledge unimpaired.

There is an upsurge in the number of messages and images posted on various platforms glorifying readiness to indulge, the use and abuse upon resumption of an active economy in early July.

The mood for binge drinking and making merry is obviously set for the lot referred to as social users upon the likely resumption.

As an addict in early recovery you know better that as it is amidst this crisis the cravings to use is likely to be triggered by the anxious tendencies exhibited by the social users planning on binge drinking/drugging and in a fort night.

And that's the reason for my post.

Affording not to cross examine your circle is you have any and distancing yourself from fellows with questionable characters is setting the stage for a slip, lapse and eventually a relapse.

Relapses occurring at this particular time are crisis relapse, we are all in a crisis and still recovering addicts, working a stronger program especially during this time of will ensure you emerge a victor over your argues to use.

Recovery is a daily oath, everyday that ends sober is a successful day, begin each day with the three reminders;

1. That use cannot use safely.
2. That use can not use like them.
3.That relapse is only a glass/shot/gram/puff away.

We of the AA/NA we are like men and women who have lost there legs we never grow new ones.

After all is said and done, every element of dust dusted. That which shall suffice still is sitting, convincing and inclining the 11 year old towards Birth control patch, pill, ring or shot. Consider convincing because therapists will always be able to determine whether they were coerced or are convinced and are willing to take it.

Otherwise next year same time we shall still be here with ballooned figures of teenage pregnancy.

According to Freud, anxiety results form external threats and at the same time it comes form internal threats, which comes in the form of it impulses.

These id impulses attempt to break through into consciousness and behaviour. The id tends to push in one direction while the ego pushes in the opposite direction to control the undesirable and unrealistic id impulses.

In generalized anxiety, although the id impulses are repressed they continue and this conflict with the ego to cause anxiety.
