Feelings are extremely hurt and fell like drinking.
Drinking is not the solution Sleepie, it isn't for any of us.
You had mentioned in your new plan that you were going to be taking antabuse anyway, did you decide against that?
I also hope you did attend some of those anxiety workgroups you mentioned, that could be very helpful in times like this.
Lastly, you mentioned a prescription was obtained for help with your OCD issues...did you end up getting it?
I list these things not to call you out, but to remind you that there are appropriate solutions to our problems. You actively had a plan to use them and they are much better options than drinking. I hope you can do so.

Mmm, mhmm. So you "fell like drinking" --misspelling and true!
Sleepies, I know for people who was not show caring, or has role model of caring when young, is very hard to even fathom what that mean. I not ever sure if I "care." Even about self! And it very hard for me to accept that somebody might "care" about me. Cuz, what is that? It much easier to think they patronizing me, or platituding me, or calling me out. Can be crazy-making, yes?
I gonna go out on limb and say, I think everybody here wish best for you. I will also go out on same limb for my self, which not easy. Deal?

Sorry Sleepie, just get back on the wagon. We all feel liking it sometimes and the problem here for you is you just can't give in no matter what. You have to treat alcohol like a life or death decision if you want to stay off of it. It's that 6 month I often write about that I think many of us have. You really need to push through those mental impulses, I think there is way more psychology to drinking than most people believe. The physical stuff is such a small fraction of the habit in the big picture. It's the psychological part that will get you every time. You just have to let your brain get far enough away from it before you can let your guard down. Try again and remind yourself about 90 days in to watch the mental cliff because it is lurking everywhere for several more months.

I am happy to see you didn't drink.
I know it sucks to have hurt feelings. I am overly sensitive and often have to give internal hugs to me from me.
I hope you can come back and talk about it here. You have many, many, many supporters

I'm sorry your feeling are/were hurt - I think dwelling on it is unhealthy tho.
One of my favourite Eleanor Roosevelt quotes is this one
You're empowered Sleepie - not passive.
feel the very real support there is here for you - and move on
