Well, it was a busy weekend and a hard one for some based on the threads but we all won the al battle.
IJM - I really hope your son's GF is okay, please check in and let us know.
Re: shoplifting - I remember shoplifting when I was a kid and getting caught. The store owner was nice though and said she had seen me with my mom so if I gave back what I had stolen she wouldn't charge me. My sister was with me and she never told on me so my mom never did find out. However it scared me straight enough that I never did it again.
My anxiety has been high the past couple of days, call it being overwhelmed I think. I know it sounds stupid but by the end of my week with my daughter I am feeling so overwhelmed that I am actually glad she is going back to her dads. I feel horrible saying that because she and I are very close and she is my everything but I guess the reality is that I am still not healthy enough to be a primary caregiver at this point. The anxiety hits and it's awful. Had an attack yesterday and was waiting for a half an hour for my anxiety meds to kick in and during that time I felt like I was going to die - or at least I wanted too. Good thing is the thought of using al as a medication tactic never crossed my mind which is what I used to do.
Therapist meeting today (thank god! Highly needed) and then some homework. It's cold and dreary here but at least no rain so that is good.
I hope everyone has an awesome AF day!
