Anxiety and Drinking
So if I needed any further evidence that my anxiety and drinking are connected I just had it. Couldn't find an important document I need/want and started to feel the anxiety build up inside me. First thought 'have a drink to steady your nerves' but I've deliberately not got any in the house. Second thought 'pop to the shop down the road and get some' but I'm trying to be sober. Third thought 'go and lie down for a min and stop panicking and look for the document when you're calmer. Even if you can't find it it's not the end of the world.
This third thought is new to me, but I'm liking it already.
