Toast's AA Journal
Hey Toast, I'm going to comment on your older stuff that I'm caught up with because I'm choosing not to look at the drills ahead of time. Makes it a bit more fun/manageable. There was one girl who I let pass by. I think I need new glasses/contacts because sometimes its hard for me to judge from a di...

My COVID-19 Depression, & How I'm Fighting It
I have to say, the sheer amount of psychological adversity last year and this year so far has made me a bit more comfortable with doing my own thing and being my own person. Every "adventurer" has to go through a crucible, doing what they know is right while under duress (because of everyone around ...

Manganiello's AA Program
Dude I try not to look at the drills ahead of time, but so happy for you
Understand this pretty hard. Isn't it great? LolManganiello wrote: ↑Sat Feb 13, 2021 5:50 amI had knots in my stomach pretty much the whole day, it was hours of just uninterupted mild anxiety. It was exhausting.

Manganiello I don't think anyone's gonna get arrested over some high fives, or even kicked out of anywhere. I want to tell myself, "Go ahead, don't do it, you've got the only excuse in the world!" but I know it's just the natural anxiety talking. I like the "air five" idea. Tomorrow's my Day 14, so...

@Manganiello Look out for tomorrow's log, new territory >:D
@Toast I've also noticed people stepping back a lot. It might just be a 2 hours of rejected high fives, but you know what, it'll be faster exposure for having your high five rejected, that's a big fear for a lot of people (including me).

How does it feel to consistently do things that scare you/things your first instinct tells you to avoid?
I'm a pretty "neurotic" guy, like a lot of us here probably. I've been doing the AA program. To get through it, you have to be willing to consistently face adversity (real or imagined) every day. That's the whole point. I've taken this approach to other things in my life too in the last year, where ...

Manganiello's AA Program
Dude congrats on the weight loss first of all. Lots of face gains. I know that bloated face, wrinkles-accentuated look that you had in the before picture; I had the same. Takes discipline to get to here, and that same discipline is showing up in your weight loss, it's showing up in your social freed...

Toast's AA Journal
Hahaha "HEY HOW'S IT HANGIN'" I can't wait to do that one. Unfortunately I didn't read the drill properly, and did all of the interactions while acting gay. Hahahaha Good lessons. Lesson 1, do it. Lesson 2, don't not do it. Can't wait to see your high five experience tomorrow. You better do it. I'm ...

Just have to build momentum. Do 5 days in a row, and you won't want to skip on the 6th. And if you do, force yourself to walk out the door and do it anyway. You'll feel better after the first set.TimmyTurner wrote: ↑Tue Feb 23, 2021 10:27 pmAs for today, I don't know what it was but I couldn't get myself going at all.
