Being a grown up is lousy
Friday night. Thinking about my problems. My life is really tense right now. The husband isn't speaking to me. It's gone on for 2 days. He can go for 5. I am used to it. It is one of the reasons I started drinking again 4 years ago. Work is demanding and not so rewarding. I don't want to drink over this. None of it is worth it. So I am sitting here realizing that I just have to suffer through the nonsense of my life. I am not upset or depressed, well maybe a little depressed, I am just accepting that life is not fair. sigh. I know drinking will do absolutely nothing to improve my situation. So, I am going to be an adult and get through life like everybody else on the planet. I wont run away or stomp my feet. I feel ok, not great, not desperate just tired and grown up.

For me, drinking brings out immature thinking. I run away from responsibility. I whine and complain. I thrown some outrageous temper tantrums. I don't know if everyone is like that. I become very childish.

Life is hard when you're a grown up but it is so much better when you are sober. I used to drink to escape my problems and fighting with my husband was a big reason that I would feel like drinking. I'm a breastfeeding mom so I cannot drink, sometimes I feel like I wanna drink just one, but my daughter means the world to me and I have to be responsible and say No. Don't give up....
