Sam, sorry you're struggling.
immri - good to see you! Glad you are doing well, and staying aware of tricky situations where AV can sneak up on you.
Sleep well CH!
Sam, I'm sorry you're struggling too. I'm trying to rethink those "struggling" feelings. I think to myself...."I'm glad I'm struggling" because that means there's a fight in me that wants to stop drinking. Without those conflicted feelings, I'd drink. It's the me, way deep down, trying to come out and be the person I want to be...fighting the addiction. I don't know if that makes sense, but that helps me to embrace those feelings of push/pull.
Hi immri!!!!!
