24 more for me please, and thank you.
Good homegroup meeting tonight, although I didn’t feel like sharing it’s nice to listen. A.A. is a safe place for me, and for someone who has spent much of his life feeling insecure, unwanted and not good enough that means a great deal.
I’m tired tonight, physically, but not sleepy. I have this sense of disconnection and a little uneasy. Thoughts of my ex partner and children are strong, and my mind is running circles telling me that she’s with someone else, the children are getting to know another man as a stepfather, etc etc...
It’s all crap and to be perfectly honest, I could do nothing to change it even if it happens to be true, so I wish I could think of something else. (Where’s my rainbow unicorn got to?)
The weather is dismal, for the first time since I’ve been in my new job I felt like ringing in sick today, but I would have been lying and it didn’t sit well so I put on my big boy pants and got my act together.
Actually had a pretty good day, all things considered. Feeling listless and without direction at the moment, I have my guitars looking at me but haven’t the inclination to pick one up.
Can’t concentrate on tv programs, I’ll put something on but can’t get interested enough to pay attention.
I feel like doing something out of control but safe, if that makes sense. I’m thinking I’ll maybe do a bungee jump, or see if I can book a flying lesson, or something else a bit off the wall, just because I can and I want to feel alive...
I could do with booking some time off work but I’m scared of having nothing to do. I hate the places that my head will take me to if I don’t keep it busy.
Physically I know I look and feel very much better for not drinking and using. Mentally, it’s tough. The pain, self doubt, guilt and remorse I feel are all things I used to try and escape from, in sobriety I no longer have my usual method of getting away or forgetting. But the choice is mine today, and I’m very grateful that I have that choice. I never did before.
So I’m signing off tonight in the knowledge that even though I’ve done bad things in the past, today I have done the right things.
Peace and love from a sad, tired and introspective James tonight. I wish I hadn’t been such a horrible, selfish person for so long .
Stay safe everyone
