I started keeping a journal of my drinking, feeling, thoughts. I started researching. In my sober moments, I made a plan.

Then my dear 70-something parents unknowingly pulled a page right out of the RR methodology. Knowing my plan was not doable while I was uninsured and underemployed, they offered to pay for it and made a doctors appointment for me. As long as I did it right now.

So, a very good office visit, a prescription, and a counselor referral later...I'm back.
Glad to hear it, t. Done a bit of wandering myself......RR has been the only thought construct that actually helped me STOP.

The prescription helped me make it through the withdrawal.

Rooting for you.
