Hi forabetterlife...I hate those kinds of feelings. Have actually been dealing with a lot of that spiral type thinking myself today (no desire to drink though), just extremely sad and anxiety. Cr*p to deal with today, relationship, work stuff. Anyhow, just now I am working on some detachment affirmations. Would you be interested in researching a bit about that? It can sound kind of silly to some, but affirmations really can help. There are a lot of really good affirmation sites, usually you can fine something that applies to what you are going through "at this time". Best wishes to you. You know the booze won't help, that is a fact.
