I have just finished up a visit by 2 nice, damaged people who are at the same stage- housing wise in this very intense recovery program. One had just bought booze to watch the crows (football - Aussie for others)game tonight and the other still smokes weed and boozes. They both still engage with others who are actively into addiction. But I let them in and distanced myself and concentrated on me...that I was safe and their behaviour does not have to effect me...although I am emotionally numb at the moment. I enjoy them when they are normal..but I have set my own boundaries..for me. I know you did- but others will do as they do. Support to you.

Thanks PJ.. I will definitely be distancing myself from now on, and they're not close friends to me anyway.. I'd accepted the dinner offer as I usually hide myself away from people when I'm drinking- I made a deal with myself that I'm not going to isolate myself any more .. arghh

If you were on meds..you could have been very violently ill...or worse..Don't beat yourself up Nic....the deceit had nothing to do with you. You can hold your head up high. Don't let the backstabbing be a trigger. You are doing amazing. Love and support . Xxx P.xx

((Pebbles)) thankyou x I feel like sh*t to be honest and it's easy to fall into self pity and drink over it but I won't..
I went down for milk tonight and walked past the bottle shop and bought myself chocolate and chips instead lol!!! I'll eat myself into a
Junk food coma instead x
Hope you're well xx good luck for your charity do

Personally, I believe you still have five weeks of working actively on recovery, don't allow anger or despair to derail you sweetie.

My thoughts are with everyone suffering from the current run of storms and Hurricaines, please keep safe.

Toots in for another 24 please

Thanks toots- it's scary isn't it.. I actually didn't even question it- besides the fact I was craving alcohol afterwards .. couldn't taste vodka and it didn't cross my mind. Oh well moving on x

Nic=- you did nothing wrong and everything right. You are taking positive (for you) risks. I am doing the same. That does not mean it always works out- but it also means eventually it will. The point for us, really is not the social event, but the fact we are growing. Go us...roar.
