I thought I was alright as I don't call myself names, I know I'm good at my job and a good wife. But these are concious thoughts. It's the unconcious beliefs, the terror at making mistakes and being rejected. I had two amazing days then was flooded with it. It's taken my breath away and I feel devasted for myself. But I know I need to feel it. Not numb it.
I'm sorry for all this and not even being able to respond to anyone just now. I needed to get it out. I came really close to losing it today. Gabe xx

About 5:40am in my world, and ready for another 24 hours of sober living. Stayed up a little too late last night - hoping for a quick nap at some point to help make it through the day! 
Be good everyone.

I am sober today - hoping to check in a little earlier tomorrow!!!

.. and, hey, who knows what lies around the corner.
51 isn't old, even 76 ain't old!
