What is Eclectic Recovery?
Hi. I'm Angela. Eclectic Recovery is my blog and I welcome you to its pages.
ER began as an exploration into my ongoing issues with addiction/mental illness and the solutions I employed and experiences I went through attempting to navigate a course to health. Mostly they have been unsuccessful and ridiculous. Such, I find, is much of life.
My own problems with addiction have led me to catch onto the fact that virtually the entire world is addicted and that a forced detox is imminent. Peak oil, climate change & continued destruction, imperialism, corruption, global financial and food insecurity - these things will not go away just because we don't look.
My recent intense self-education into these issues still feels way behind the curve. At the same time, I realize that the majority of folks still can't stomach the topics and are in deep denial of our dilemma. But becoming informed and taking action, accepting responsbility and stepping up to the plate are going to, at the very least, make it much easier when you release that last breath. At best, you could get to be part of a revolution for change that will move us from an oiil-based, patriarchally defined way of life towards a reverence based society wherein all life is honored and we become, again, just another part of that life.
There's a lot of information out there and I believe I've gotten pretty good at separating the wheat from the chaff. I am called to provide anyone who happens to visit ER the good information I'm finding and attempt to engage them in action.
Peacefully. Respectfully.
ER is no longer just a personal blog. It's political, too.

Aw just suck it up, Angela!
(Kidding! I just had to say something different!)
And you can't be mad at me 'cause you know why! tra la la!
Feel better Angela!!!
Be well, I read your 100th post and I honestly am very happy for you. I know exactly what you mean by the AA scare/shame thing what do you think it means when they say if you weren't an alcoholic before you attended a meeting you are one now. (That says it all right there) I believe that once you stop ruining your life your spiritual awakening begins.

oh poor thing.
take care and rest up.
thinking of you and looking forward to your healing and recovery, so you can be back here again soon.
love.
