you relate well
but it’s all doom and gloom
your’e in there to detox
they won’t even give you caffeinated coffee
I’m not court ordered, I’m in voluntarily
many have been in more than 3 times
Huh? Our group would close in a week if I served decaf. And they’d beat the crap out of me behind the church to boot! Never mess with an AA member’s caffeine fix. (The program deals with booze only, drink as much coffee and eat as much ice cream as you want.)

even on the psych ward, Pixel,
they lied to me. I knew when it came in green packets
and not red, that it wasn’t caffeinated. Fu=ckers.
a) A psych ward is not AA. You’re not comparing apples and oranges so much as apples and livestock.
b) If your group sucks find another group. The AA program doesn’t tell you what kind of coffee you can drink. Any AA member who does isn’t following the Big Book or Tradition.

that was where I detoxed though, Pixel, on the psych ward
could have used some caffeine.
you shake
you feel near heart attack or seizure
it only takes about 3 or 4 days though.
I detoxed on the streets. Homeless in January and February in Canada. It sucked. I would have been happy for some hot decaf.

It sounds awful. I’m so proud of you for going through that! Are you sober now?
in rehab I remember buying a guy a Pepsi with mine
at least it was a little caffeine.
I’ll be 27 years clean and sober on Feb 15, 2019.

That sounds worth it to me!
I guess? It was one of the worst experiences of my life. I still have nightmares about it.
I can’t even imagine. I’m so sorry you had to go through that. But it’s incredible what you’ve accomplished since then!
