things to avoid

things for me to avoid;

romancing the high...or euphoric recall,
remembering only the fun, and exciting times.

negative nellies...those who just can't stop whining.

extremists...anyone too gung-ho on any cause

the "always happy" people...life just isn't that great all the time for anyone!

outbursts...the old reactive method of instantly lashing out

rushing...causes big trouble on the road(see above)

self-pity...just when you think nobody is worse off than you,
you watch the evening news.

egomania...a big problem for some alky's, and very self-destructive

over dependence on anyone...that includes spouses, sponsors, therapists, & clergy.
