          Syd, life is a cycle. And everyone knows it's ups and downs. In accepting this we learn to expect the downward swing and brace for it, giving us that edge of strength to overcome it for the sunrise brings a new day with new challenges. May you take those challenges and make them your victories of honor. Great write.

              Some of the best 10 words I ever read, and read again, and read again...

                  Hi James, I agree with what you say about medication, the majority of people genuinely need them.

                  Here in the UK under the government starved NHS the doctors and nurses do the best they can. A lot a people I know where I live get the impression that the local GPs just don't want to listen to you properly and are quite happy to write a prescription just to get you processed and back out of the door.

                  As for my sobriety, I'm only a week in. I'll admit it is hard though with no support.

                  Thanks - Syd
