Thank you QuitWhileAhead! I received an email from my manager yesterday acknowledging my work and notifying me of a raise in pay, along with my new job description with many new job responsibilities! I am excited and nervous, but grateful that I have an appointment for an intake with a psychiatrist the last week in December. Self-sabotage is part of my past, and I know that I need the help of an addiction specialist to help me navigate life in sobriety. I have either sabotaged or walked away from so many career opportunities in my past, and I do NOT want to repeat that self-defeating pattern that begins with drinking.
I so appreciate the sober recovery community, and the transparency that is encouraged!
