Of course I understand...I also picked Spock ya know, so I totally get it. What I do when I need to, is tell myself what I would tell others. I mean like I tell myself out loud..."Soberlicious, you have absolutely no reason to be embarrassed right now. Know it girl...you asked for help because you are strong, and your embarrassment is simply using energy that you cannot spare right now. Leave it behind, it's weighing you down and you gotta move. Let's go. chop chop." OK...so that's what I do. Out Loud. Like I'm talking to a friend. Whacked out, yeah, a little, but it works for me.

and this is also very very good!
It looks like there is a bit of hope. Glad you have shed some tears...not letting them out can pull you under. xo
