@LexiCat40 It is a bit concerning that many ONLY post stuff with alcohol/weed. Proof that these substances are entrenched in their lives & their lives revolve around them. I'm shocked as to how many people think this is acceptable....especially on social media.
people have increased their drinking to alcoholism. I do not envy when I see these images. I just feel concerned. Not a single post from them without booze . Has anyone else noticed this ? Maybe I am projecting. Maybe I do a 4th on this ?
On other social media platforms, I see people I know not to be alcoholic posting pictures of themselves in social settings like parties and at restaurants and in every scene they are drinking. Often they look drunk . I know that during this pandemic many people
At the meeting, there are people who welcomed me and others from the beginning . Then there are those who are standoffish towards many including me. Love and tolerance are our code . I must remember this always . π
I went to my home group today. It is such a beautiful day , sunny perfect weather. I feel so much gratitude for being sober and the amazing joy I have .Sunday and no hangover. Thankful for small things like my home made pasta meal on the patio and beloved dog .
My higher power has got me and is making a way for me. I made a lot of money as a nurse but was always stressed if I am honest with myself. God allowed me this time to get sober and heal. Now I have another direction that I can choose. I can be of service.
No you cannot. You go before the BRN and accept the terms they give. You can hire a lawyer for 10 - 15 grand which may yield same outcome. I donβt give my age but it will not pencil out even if I do get a RN job. Thanks I donβt do DM
@LexiCat40 Can you get hired conditionally and then pay? Do you want to? I mean, Iβd ask that carefully. Whereβs you best route to contribute and take care of yourself? You may dm me if you want.
I have to be in acceptance that I might not achieve the goal of going back into nursing, at least at this time The doors are not opening. People can speculate but it borders on contempt prior to investigation. My ESH with healing can and will be used in a related field π
@ccschreiner I am not worried about having a dirty test . The barrier is the 500 dollars a month and the possibility I may not get hired as an Rn . I was a bedside nurse and went out on medical ( SSDI) due to 6 herniated discs . I have to do another type of nursing and be retrained
The doors donβt seem to be opening to return to nursing; however, there seem to more opportunities in the field of recovery. My counselor is helping me finding funding to pay for training. She is so kind and supportive.
I cannot believe it! Today I have 9 years clean. Things are not perfect in my life but I have both happiness and serenity and I can't think of anything I would trade that for. If you are struggling please hang in there! πππ
