Maybe I am going through a honeymoon period here, but I am really liking how I am feeling. And how I am viewing myself. I am liking ME more. I have told a few people so far and all of those conversations went super well. I feel cradled in support and love.
Hello, I am on day 4. I found your blog on unpickled-- I like your description of "negotiating with Booze Brain". That's pretty much my life. I am so tired of those negotiations!!
ReplyDeleteHi Dorothea! Negotiating with Booze Brain is an exercise in frustration, to say the least! Like I wrote, my BB sounds like Audrey Hepburn, but take its mask off and it's the scariest demon you've ever seen. But I'm standing up to it and so are you! I'm stronger than that and what lies ahead is better than anything BB can promise. It's funny, because when 5PM rolled around, I would always picture that first taste of wine, that initial sense of calm. I would never picture the hangover, the dry mouth and the sense of failure that happened again and again and again, without fail. BB is the ultimate in showing you what it wants you to see.
