BlackJack Posted September 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Have you tried CBT and group therapy? Can we channel your gift to be productive? Can we refuse to lose? You have a beautiful mind you know. I have tried group therapy in AA settings, and some CBT. Im not sure what you mean about my gift to be productive? I want to refuse to lose but cognitively I cannot, when adam talks about departmentalization disorder i can relate to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Learning to breathe is so exhilarating. Everyone feels depression and that's OK. You're still feeling!!!What do you miss the most? Music, sports, TV? There are extremely simple ways to release negative energy that require no logical thought process. We are gifted Jack. Many people can't think at all. We think too much, too fast, in too many channels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that you will be able to live in the moment and earn to let your racing thoughts be one with themselves. My guess is your mind, when functioning is quite sharp.

BlackJack Posted September 12, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 i suppose i am guilty of going through the weeds as well.... i commend you for staying on the path housepicks, but i dont believe you should judge those of us who have made mistakes. I do admire you though and if I had another go around there are certain things i would surely change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
