I am new and just learned about H.A.L.T
I was angry and tired or maybe I am tired of being angry, either way I was feeling bad.
It helps knowing others are going through the same thing. The day after my sponsor mentioned HALT to me there was an AA meeting on just that subject so it was perfect timing.
I can't say I have been lonely as I was used to spending time alone but the AA meetings have helped me see I was spending to much time alone. I am not saying AA is a social club but it has brought me back out into the world.
Before I just wanted to be left in my corner to do whatever it was I wanted to do without answering to anyone. Now I feel a sense of belonging and people are expecting to see me.
