That's great, Mish
I've had a rough night emotionally, but with the help of an old friend who's got long-term 12-step sobriety, I've recovered my bearings.
I will not be drinking. I will not buy any alcohol. And I will deal with the feelings that brought this on at 1:30 am tonight, when I'm home and comfortable. I keep only mineral water in the fridge now. That will be a good time to address those emotions ... away from a store full of beer coolers.
