Day 5 - work update

So im on day 5 and super determined not to drink ever !!! As id said in other posts I'd left my job last weekend during a binge/bipolar episode, as i just felt stress was too much and i needed something to change and wanted to focus on my recovery.

Today my boss rang me and asked me to stay but under a different role (less stressful) and part time, just 10-2 so i could do the school runs.

They are going to ring me back tomorrow but i think i will accept as then i can have little bit of work but with the extra time to focus on my recovery

That sounds like a great solution Tink. I think having the routine of working can be helpful during your recovery, it may also allow you to add hours once you get some sobriety under your belt.

Thank you all yes i feel extremely touched that they have given me this offer rather than just get rid of me.
