sober growing pains
I have come to the conclusion that I drank excessively to get away not only from life but from myself. I used it to cope in so many situations; death, loss, phone calls to my addict parents. I'm left w just me now & I feel so many emotions. Today I'm angry. For many reasons. Normally I'd drink but I'm trying to find the source & deal with it. I learned that rinsing my brain cells w alcohol numbed my issues. It then became instinct. I'm uncomfortable but sober. In pain but growing.
