Things that annoy me, or things I disagree with - holding onto those things and ruminating on them, even searching them out it seems. Yesterday I was even getting annoyed with this site, and then I realized that I was willingly searching out threads that I had some sort of disagreement with and reading those rather than searching for more helpful topics (or better yet, getting away from my computer! ).

And you do bring up a good point about my leaving other people out. I do have a tendency to isolate, partially because (aside from a few certain people) I tend to get hung up on my differences with other people. But I am working on that through group therapy and f2f meetings. With 25 years of drinking/using, and that being my main way of relating to other people, it is taking some time to learn new ways of connecting. I think I intentionally didn't mention the group stuff because I thought of it more as a source of negativity, but.... hmm, that's an interesting insight. Thanks.
