Welcome to episode 87 of the Recovery Show. This episode is brought to you by

Alice. She used the donation button on our website. Thank you Alice for your

generous contribution. This

episode is for you. We are friends and family members of alcoholics and

addicts who have found a path to serenity and happiness. We who live or have

lived with a seemingly hopeless problem of addiction

understand as perhaps a few others can. So much depends on our own attitudes and

we believe that changed attitudes can aid recovery.

Do you find yourself running in circles?

Do you obsess over things you can't change?

Today we're going to talk about what is like when our lives are unmanageable

and how we have found a better way to live?

Before we begin, we would like to state that though we at the Recovery Show may be in a

12-step program, we represent ourselves rather than the program.

During this show we will share our own experiences as they relate to the topic of unmanageability.

The opinions expressed here are strictly those of the prison who gave them.

Take what you like and leave the rest.

I hope that you will find something in our sharing that speaks to your life.

My name is Spencer and I will be your host today.

Joining me today is co-host Ruth and how are you today Ruth?

Hello Spencer, I'm good, how are you?

I'm doing well.
