"In fact, you did soooo well last week. You managed to only drink 2 or 3 a night (forget about tuesday you only had 4) I think we need a reward. Lets drink the whole bottle tonight, its a small bottle. We're in such a good mood! Lets get another one! Then lets yell at your husband and get into a fight and scare the **** out of your kid because you're screaming bloody ******* murder from under the bookshelf in the middle of the night. Then lets call into work because they aren't really going to fire you. .. . I know I know... we promised we wouldnt call in again til the end of the year. We really really need the money and you already used all your sick days. But you did well all week. You arent an alcoholic. Alcoholics .... are different. They get duis. They drink themselves to death. They have been to the gates of hell and ... its just a little warm where you are....

Maybe ...

erin, I must apologize before I say anything else. I laughed so hard at that line that I cried. When I think back to some of the insane crap I did in the past, it amazes me. When I say "think back", I mean remember or remember being told. I used to think the crazy times were something to be proud of. Now I know they were just crazy.

Hang in there Erin, our minds will try to sell us all the myths and fairytales it can get away with!!

Keep pushing through those thoughts!!

yep... been there....

I go to the gym. Quite a lot, actually. And I train in two martial arts now. And I run a fair bit.

Because that bastard is always out there, somewhere, doing pushups and getting ready for a fight.

I'm not gonna let him win again.
