Thank you toots. ♥
The counsellor stayed on the phone with me for almost an hour, way above and beyond.
It was so helpful to talk to an addiction counsellor at this point.
I have a lot of shame at the moment for not being able to get further ahead in my job search and stuff...and I feel I could have done more to help my auntie. Over and over the counsellor said to me, I know how hard all of this is, but you are sober. No matter what is happening, you are still sober... you bet. I am not going to let anything take that away from me.
Dad has pneumonia again. So he may or may not be able to fight this off.
I will feel whatever I feel, and perhaps cut myself a break here...
I am so grateful that I have all of you to talk to.
At times like this, I am not so good at being by myself.
