Evening all
Hugs to you, Mary. I just sat with a medic guy tonight talking about my dad's illness and how stressful that was. It was so comforting that he knew exactly what I was saying. I still can't believe it's only a year ago that I was trying to work out how to cope with that stress. And that it gave me enough motivation to manage those precious first AF months that lay the foundations for new habits. Sobriety will give you the strength you need, Mary.
I've been practicing more new habits, ODAT. I practice saying no. I practice speaking up. And I practice letting others get angry without freaking out. I practiced again today, it's not easy, but I'm getting more used to forcing myself thru that discomfort barrier and into the new. None of this would be possible without sobriety. It is the foundation for all these other bits of wellness, for which I'm so grateful, again, today.
Det, I haven't gone thru what you describe falling asleep but I've had weird experiences waking up. For me it seemed to be stress related.
Welcome to new faces :welcome: This is great place to hang out!
