A little harsh - but I can take it.
Just because I am having a bad day today (as it is day 1) doesn't mean that I am self-sufficient.

But then again, you do have a point because when I look back at all my attempts I obviously haven't been doing more than what I should be doing.
My last 2 weeks of sobriety were great...I went out more, I was actively looking for work as well as schools and reading up on getting my driver's license. And then this relapse happened...and I know I am doing a pity party for me today.
I know that sometimes I expect others to take care of me. Sad but true.
25 isn't an excuse. You are right.
I really do want to make my life different - sometimes the anxiety gets in the way or I am afraid.
It is obvious I am afraid of change.
What is this called and how can I "change myself"?
Anyone have any ideas?
Other then "get up, get busy, get living"...maybe that's all the advice I need.

I know things get easier with time. I am just have a tough time today.

Thanks.
