Finished Day 2, but a long way to go

 

Hi everyone who reads this -

 

I want to stick with this program.  I realize I have a long way to go but that is not a reason to give up.

 

My stress level is still high, but I am trying to internalize the messages - I may not be able to change events right now, but I can choose how to react to them.  My reaction in the end, may make or break the situation, only time will tell.

 

I am struggling a bit with using alcohol and pain killers as a crutch, for which I am very ashamed.  It helps me cope, but I know its not the answer.  I hope the answer lies in the course and that is why I have to continue.

 

I am surprised that a) the course is free and b) it looses so many people after just one day.  I think the feedback and support I am getting from others out there is almost as valuable as the course itself.  I think more people should stick with it.

 

Anyway, I have to go. Thanks again everyone for your cheers and feedback, and here's looking to day 3.
