Default try something radical - 07-09-2008, 12:49 AM
Sometimes when I'm at my wits end I try to do something totally different that takes time and energy. Go for a LONG walk in a straight line so it will take you as long to return.
Or attack a physical project - dig at the garden. Start a painting a wall. Defrost the fridge. Something to break the flow. It sometimes works for me - yet I struggled hard last night.
Mostly just live for one day.
Hang in there.

Mady I'll start taking walks instead! That's a good idea!

I had no idea I could do that here. I am positive, I know! But this pa is only about "sad things" so I didn't know I could be an inspiration!

Thanks alot for your words!

But I don't care. It'll not bring me down!

Day one, again. My first try here, was the best.. But I will try to beat that record (21 days)
Sorry.. I will beat that record!

Good night goodpeople!

Hey Dane! Congratulations on 9 days! Thats great!

I'd advise you to stick a filter on that shiny new computer ASAP though. It's best to make sure you can't relapse even if you want to!

Keep up the good work!

Ben

It've now been two weeks!
Don't know wht, but so far it've been really easy.
No hard temptations. Maby it's because I'v had a lot to do
these days..?

Anyway; it's great!
