I am currently not seeing a therapist or counseling but I have in the past. I guess my counseling right now is going to continuing care when I can. It doesnt follow an AA format and I think its a nice change from the AA meetings.
The last therapist tried to help me the best she could and I did ok in certain increments, but I was barely getting by and bold face lying to her in certain sessions. I wasn't helping myself in any way at all. One of the worst ones is that she asked me if I had drank that day and I told her no(complete lie). Just awful all the way around.
I was really a walking trainwreck for awhile and it resulted in another rehab stint. I would go 2-3 days without a drink and then go right back to it.
Saturday will be two weeks. I do thank the AA meetings, continuing care, this message board, and knowing if I drink I end up in the hospital.
