Hi Trish,

You know when they say stopping the drugs/drinking is just the beginning, this is what they're talking about. We still have so much work to do on ourselves as we try to figure out how live life as it is. I had a lot of anger too, in my early recovery. After trying to figure out what I was really angry about, I realized that a lot of my anger was directed toward myself. I was angry that I had allowed myself to become an addict and that I had hurt people. Recognizing the anger toward myself, was the first step in the slow process of forgiving myself.

What are you really angry about Trish?

I am SO glad that your kitten is doing well!
