Satz, I'm so sorry you've got all this going on. It's so hard when our kids struggle and I think in some ways it's worse when you know exactly how awful they're feeling because you've had the same bad experience. Am I understanding correctly that the police took and lost track of your car? I hope they get themselves straightened out and get it back to you soon.
Rox, if you're content on your own, that's one thing, but if you're feeling disconnected and lonely, I hope you make the effort to get out in real life or get involved here again. Who knows whether the cycle is -drink/isolate/drink- or -isolate/drink/isolate- but either way, it seems to be a common experience and that once it starts, it is hard to stop, so isolating seems pretty risky to me. Plus, I miss reading your cryptic, on-point observations.
SweetPea, is a jumpsuit a one-piece pants/top outfit?? Those were popular here in the 70s I remember thinking I looked really great wearing them and felt cool and confident in them - despite the going to the bathroom problem. Photos from that time reveal that I didn't really look quite as fabulous as I thought but since they helped me feel good about myself, I'm glad they were around.
I read part I of Clarity while traveling yesterday. I vacillated between thinking I was really "getting it" and being totally confused and thinking the whole thing was stupid - that a bunch of gurus were making tons of $$ selling books and conducting workshops to convince us that the way to be happy and healthy is to do nothing (it would be a pretty brilliant scheme, wouldn't it??). But -- I've experienced an unusually quiet mind and less stress since beginning an exploration of all this so I think there is something here worth pursuing. The little glimpses of understanding that I had are giving me the confidence to stick with it.
