What do you do when 'angry' thoughts race?
So lately my sobriety has been fairly easy. However, once in a while, I find myself unable to sleep because my mind is racing with those "this person made me angry" or "life sucks" thoughts that once triggered me to use. I find that I am learning to better deal with them, and I'm not so worried about relapsing immediately with they come up. However, I am concerned about them consuming me in the long run and, eventually, causing me to relapse when substances cross my path.
I find myself accepting that my flaws are my own, and that no one else is accountable for them except for me. However, at times, I continue to struggle with the anger I feel over my perceiving of people being angry with me over my flaws, even if i know, consciously, that they probably don't currently think about those things as much as I do, if at all.
Yes, I am getting therapy, but Rome wasn't built in a day...
