Today will be my 5th counseling session. So far we've mostly discussed my addiction cycle and developing strategies for not re-entering the drinking/bingeing cycle. Now it's probably time to start dealing with the remorse I have for 'all the things that I have done' while under the grips of addiction. I think some of this will be necessary before I can reach closure, self-forgiveness, and slowly begin to be proud of who I am and how I live rather than anxious and ashamed.
