12 days til i have 7 yrs despite a major blowout i had with my sponcer....alls i can say is sticks and stones, its amazing how low someone will stoop to stir up bull and lies and fabricated crap because you want to stop supporting them some people want everything for nothin....God grant me the serenity to not allow this person to take up so much rent space in my head he isn't worth it.....still sober no matter what crap he's tryin to spread ....the level at which im angry with this person is outrages ...the next time i choose a sponcer i will be alot more careful to pick one that really is living life on lifes terms instead of just talking about it. Today i know if i dont drink i wont get Drunk......goin to a meeting yall have a nice day im gonna try.......

Let go for sure, I have been there myself. The words went in her ear and out her mouth. She played into the gossip that was going around and fed it instead of refuting it.

Renegade, I know just what you mean! I just resigned from my Church last month because of irreconcilable differences. I was in denial, I guess. I was tempted to drink, but I didn't. Anger is part of disillusionment, but I realized that "resentment is the number one offender" so I am praying for the pastor, for nice things, and you know what? It works! This girl ain't gonna drink!
Love, Dana!

in my experience RESENTMENT is the #1 offender!!! since i don't carry around all those resentments anymore my serenity has increased so much! it's hard to believe i used to live my life the other way now..

Heard a long-timer say, that Guilt was a close second if not tied wit resentments. I think it is what kept me out there much longer and unable to face my own issues.
