Desperado

How do you deal with guilt..?
everyone experiences moments when the
realization that we are not perfect beings smacks us
in the face we all know the old familiar sayings "Nobody's
perfect" however there are various different methods of dealing
with guilt and which method you use to deal with it can and is
very important in the 90's one prevalent method of dealing
with guilt was to deny that one is guilty this is done in
a variety of ways... first, there is the "everyone is
doing it" excuse one common way this is
communicated is when someone says
"get used to it this is the 90's" this
is just a simple and childish
way to say... "but Mom...
EVERYBODY’S
DOIN’ IT!"
another excuse
that is used to deny guilt is
ILLNESS one may say their an alcoholic
and project that it is an illness well survey says the
problem of alcoholism is not as simple as a disease nor
as singular as the decision to drink alcoholism is BOTH
as evidenced by the fact that recovery is entirely about
making a moral “CHOICE” if alcoholism actually
was a disease it’s the only one you have to
buy which would also project the
question why then is the
GOVERNMENT
selling it to us... could it be
just to make a buck..? are you programed into
believing such excuses as these that substance abuse is
a disease get the real answers “TALK” to yourself and quit
making excuses to rationalize behavior..! how you DEAL
has nothing to do with drugs or alcohol... it’s all about
what you believe make a decision in what you
believe... make your CHOICE.

PLEASE..!

Ron does not appreciate domestic
or social violence of any kind in
this forum or on this site.

But I am interested.

Thank you.
