Yesterday, I sipped only tea, spent a lot of time on SR then went to the chat room until bedtime. It's a good morning. All of the sudden, my life doesn't feel overwhelming.
I really like it here. I like the calm. I'm not usually a calm person inside so it's helpful to be in a calm place like this. Meetings, or being in any group, is often a source of anxiety for me. I can do it (have hundreds of times), and you'd never know I wasn't comfortable, but it's not comforting inside. There is a part of me that doesn't want to be lonely and a part of me that can't finds no solace in social situations. Generally, I choose loneliness over anxiety, except in situations where I have no choice (like school). SR is giving me something in between what feels to me like two extremes.
Anyway, I hope everyone has a good day. Today is National Pecan Sandies Day (seriously), so remember to have a cookie!
