Hurt

On day 9 now and physically feeling great.

Been avoiding the phone, except for my son. My "friend" called this morning, so I let it go to voicemail. First comment was "are you drunk"? Ok, so maybe I deserve it, but it's that type of thing I am trying to avoid right now. My head is still in a fog, and my emotions are very up and down.

I do isolate and rarely leave my house. My therapist told me it's time to get out there and meet new friends. I'm going for a walk, by myself, to clear my head and get out of the house. Hard for me to meet new people as I am pretty introverted and don't trust easily anymore.

Hard to ignore the stares and comments, but I knew it was going to happen. But when that happens, I think to myself - well, you guys all think I'm still drinking, guess I might as well.

No worries, I have to quit listening to the negative and focus on myself this time. I will beat this and show them I can do it.

Thanks for listening.
