Katie,

How are you feeling? Do you plan on looking for another facility or staying sober and working on your anxiety based issues?

I am glad you and your fur family made it home safe. It really sucks the facility didn't work out. Sometimes I have found I have to use whatever I can to accomplish a task or goal in front of me and if that means running on pure anger to do it then use it. Use that anger to stay sober until the underlying issues are dealt with. If you feel like drinking just say to yourself (for now) I am not going to prove them right and drink. When you get more sober time behind you it will change and you can focus on not drinking because of the positive things it brings you.

I don't know if you have done this but remove all of the alcohol from your house so it puts an obstacle in place and time to think before you get another drink.
