So many of us suffer from despair. Yet we don't realize that despair is purely the absence of faith. As long as we're willing to turn to God for help in our difficulties, we cannot despair. When we're troubled and can't see a way out, it's only because we imagine that all solutions depend on us. The Program teaches us to let go of overwhelming problems and let God handle them for us. WHEN I CONSCIOUSLY SURRENDER MY WILL TO GOD'S WILL, DO I SEE FAITH AT WORK IN MY LIFE?
TODAY I PRAY
May I be free of despair and depression, those two "down D's" that are the result of feelings of helplessness. May I know that I am never without the help of God, that I am never helpless when He is with me. If I have faith, I need never be "helpless and hopeless."
TODAY I WILL REMEMBER
Despair is the absence of faith.
It is good to have an end to journey towards; but it is the journey that matters in the end. ~Ursula K. LeGuin
I don't know that I am looking for any answers in particular. I think that I am just trying to publically acknowledge these feelings and pull myself up by the bootstraps...

Hey: I read lots of good suggestions about managing pain and what others have done for this and I read that you relapsed on pain medication a short time ago. My question to you is: have you discussed this issue with your addictions counselor at your treatment center. This is a major relapse trigger for you and should be considered when developing a relapse prevention plan. Please talk with your counselor and allow them the opportunity to assist you in your recovery process.
I was diagnosed with Fibryomyalgia after having WLS surgery. Having a major trauma (like the surgery) can trigger the symptoms of fibryo a lot sooner for people. Except for the pain you describe in your foot all of the other stuff is dead on for fibryo. As with handling your addiction, therapy handling pain issues is very necessary. Well it was for me.
I hope all is well with you and you continue to be your own best advocate.
