Totally get where you're coming from fitz. It's hard fighting through it. At least you're making yourself do things though!

Last night I made a trip to the grocery store to get some necessities and I felt like my knees were going to buckle. It was hard but once I got to my car I was pretty proud of myself. Glad I threw myself out of my routine and just went through with it. Good feeling indeed

Hi Fitz,

I was very worried to hear that you are feeling like this. How are things going with AA and I think you mentioned a therapist.

I am hearing warning bells.
I hope I am not overstepping the mark by saying this but something serious is going on.

I am glad you come here and talk about it but I think you need to delve deeper.

I'm glad you're seeing your therapist Fitz - I know it's not how guys like us were bought up but I've learned since that it's a wise man who brings in support when he needs it.

You're important Fitz - take care of yourself

Yes, the anxiety is extremely hard, which is why I always drank. That's the thing about being sober, you HAVE to learn to deal with these things. The anxiety, the pain, the let downs in life. I'm just starting down this path, and I too am seeking therapy. Best of luck!

Hi

OK but I am not convinced that all is that well.

On another note (excuse the pun), I subscribe to 365 live radio, it is fantastic, you can listen to the biggest range of music without commercials if you subscribe. Check it out it is one of the best resources I have come across since SR.

hang in there

have a good day/evening
