Why am I grieving for something which causes me pain? Why am I thinking of the times it was fun, even if that was only as recent as a couple of years ago.
I can completely relate to this!
I feel so angry that I can't be like everyone else and have a couple of glasses of wine , beer or whatever and enjoy the small buzz rather than having to drink the whole bottle(s)
But then I'm the same with a packet of biscuits - I can't be like other people and just have one or two - I have to have the whole packet!
I can't seem to moderate anything.
And now I have hit the bottom I feel like you - I feel grief for the thing that was causing me so much pain!
Mental!
