I really don't tell people about SR. Even when I think they might benefit from it, I feel like I don't want my "real-life" friends on here. Is that bad?
It might just be a habit I picked up while doing drugs (and therefore had lots to hide). I no longer wear my heart on my sleeve as much and don't tend to give people as much info as I used to. Sadly I must admit I became a pretty accomplished liar as well, as well as quite an artist when it comes to half truths and misinformation. Part of my recovery has been trying to kick the habit of lying. Its not even that I need to lie now, I just feel like I don't want people to know much about me and its kind of silly.
Dinner time. Corned beef, etc. Happy St. Pats, everyone.
