  4. Non alcoholic beer

    SheelaDavis replied to NurseGray's topic in Nurses Recovery

    If you are an addict, you should stay away from beer, even the very low alcohol beer. 1. If an alcoholic, you are still microdosing with alcohol and that will not last. Any recovery textbook or...

  10. Checking test results?

    SheelaDavis replied to Healer555's topic in Nurses Recovery

    I agree with your sentiment, but only partially agree. Yes, most or many addicts do lie, but not ALL addicts in recovery will lie on a message board. I would argue that the majority would Not lie on a...

  13. Probation

    SheelaDavis replied to mississippiRN71's topic in Nurses Recovery

    Pursue the Dialysis Center Job. It's Temporary. You work there 1 year, and then apply everywhere and the job prospects are far easier. The toughest part is getting that first job. That first job can...

  25. Sigh.....Suspension

    SheelaDavis replied to Miss Lin's topic in Nurses Recovery

    When you say, "you dropped." I'm assuming that means you passed out at work. If true, then yes, they got you. There is no lawyer that is going to get you out of this. If I were you. Remember, the...
