I maybe out of line here but here it goes. I read some of the post that may have stopped you both from posting. I feel that us alcies share some personalty traits
like being stung a little tight and being sensitive. In saying that I feel that we sometimes say things we don't mean and interpret things that weren't meant. I know you two feel strongly about spreading the word surtive speak as will I when I'm cured, but I think that the cured posting show a strong example that tsm dose work.
I am new here and the cured input is for me the most encouraging and hopeful reading. I get a lot out of everyones posts, the new and the patient but it's the cured one that give me hope and we all need as much hope as we can get. I would really like to have you guys back on the train, your the conductors, hell I don't know how to drive this think

Most of us are still here, although we don't post as often I guess because our lives aren't centered on alcohol anymore. A lot of us still browse the TSM forum daily or nearly so, looking for places we can add value by commenting. Otherwise, you have plenty of support here.

I agree. Even though I'm not declaring myself cured, alcohol is taking a back seat to many other, healthier pursuits. When that happens, you get busy, and just don't have time to spend hours a day on this board (as I used to do). Plus, the job of spreading the news about TSM on other boards, blogs, etc. is a priority.

I really appreciate all you said in your post Bob, but the part I bolded I personally am so thankful for. I pray that I will be cured one day, and have the graciousness to give back to this community what I can and when I can as you guys do. Your posts are inspirational, although it does seem like a dream to read what you say sometimes - can this really be true?!!

8, it's definitely true, I **** you not. But now there is still work to be done, because as it turns out, alcohol is not actually the cause of, and the solution to all life's problems!

Absolutely, but at least once we are no longer addicts we can start to address the other stuff (and I completely agree, we must do that)! And if I don't beat this thing it'll kill me before anything else does - without it, I have a fighting chance I reckon.

Can'tspell,

I'm still around. Just took a bit of a hiatus.
