It was a good day to go. We talked about how I was feeling and why. She agreed that the alcohol is a definite factor. Along with the fact that I have not been doing my homework. After ranting earlier, I reread some of the previous post, "Daily Homework". While this is not a printout that she gave me, it did remind me that I have a tendency of neglecting myself when I feel well. Hopefully I learn to find that balance between care and 'fun' or maybe release that which does not truly serve me well. Do I desire to totally give up drinking? Most of me says "yes" with just a hint of that fear of not being able. It is an acceptable social crutch that has ran it's course. I need to learn to feel comfortable enough in my own skin that if I am not comfortable in a situation, I remove myself from the situation, not take a drink.
Wish me luck. I can't hide in my cave forever.
