My insanity has a new name. Prediction results one year later.

I'm Rick and I'm an addict.

Back on March 21 of 2009 I did my annual predictions (http://www.reconstructingrick.com/profiles/blogs/2009-predictions-a-little-late). Let's see how accurate I really was....

Stuff I learned in the time I have been in NA.

I'm Rick and I'm an addict. This may help or not. I don't know.

1) Stay plugged in. People who do not stay plugged in usually go back out there. This is why it says in the traditions speech about unity service. Figure out how much you need to stay plugged in so that you would feel bad if you lost your connection.

2) Build up my tools – you never know when you need them. The basic text is just a bo… Continue

From my buddy Tim....

Thoughts to ponder:

1. I think part of a best friend's job should be to immediately clear your computer's history if you die.

2. Nothing sucks more than that moment during an argument when you realize you're wrong.

3. I totally take back all those times I didn't want to nap when I was younger.

4. There is great need for a sarcasm font.

5. How the hell are you supposed to fold a fitted sheet?

6. Was learning cursive really necessary?

7. Map Quest needs to start their directions on #5. I'm… Continue

Christmas for an addict. 1 year, 7 months, 25 days clean

I'm Rick and I'm an addict.

First I wanted to thank everyone who read this blog and contributed to this site. Sadly I think I am going to take it down the first part of next year. The viewers have dropped and very rarely does someone add to the site. My posting has not been so regular either. No-one comments or shares what they know about addiction. However I do know that Tim and sometimes Jim reads it. After all, I guess it was never suppose to be this gigantic site... just a safe place for ad… Continue

Nothing changed Clean time 1 yr, 7 mo, 2 days

I'm Rick and I'm an addict.

Nothing changed mentally with me except two things. My buddy Tim and my buddy Brian showed me how simple it is to make someone feel better. Tim showed me that when someone is really down, just a serious face saying words of support means a lot and my buddy Brian showed me that if you tell someone how grateful you are of them when they are down, that it somehow makes a person who feels worthless have a little value.

I'm Rick and I'm an addict. Wow your sleep is really throwing you off track. Sounds like a real battle in your head right now. You will sleep. It will happen. It just sounds to me like you are afraid to rest because in a way you maybe getting a buzz…

Wonderful post - keep them coming! I found this post insightful yet in many ways doubting concrete belief we can ever own anything. Surely I can own something but when I do, this also means I have to protect it, improve it, enhance it, and so much…
