Re: Scarily VAST list of coping strategies
Our safe place is a dock over the lake, listening to the lake and the birds. Everything else is quiet. No one is around, just us.

Re: Just One Victory - Coping With Substance Abuse Problems
30 days today! It has been hard... I haven't been able to really go to AA at all for this whole month... The first day I didn't have anything was 9/9, and on the way to a speaker meeting on 9/10, where a good friend would be telling their story, I got broad-sided at an intersection... The other driv...

Re: Just One Victory - Coping With Substance Abuse Problems
Yay Loki! I'm a little over 6 mos sober now, but struggle saying that because I still SI and indulge in disordered eating most days. I get it, but for me, I still separate the using/drinking from the "psychiatric" stuff...

Re: Someone in my head
do you have a pdoc? sounds like dissociation to me too. i have a dissociative disorder, on the severe end of the spectrum. but dissociative disorders are a spectrum. only a pdoc can really say what is going on, based on how honest you are with them.
