Guilt

[Weeniedoglady]

I had quit drinking to help ease my anxiety and I was doing really well. I stopped completely for two months and then for a couple of weeks it seemed that I could just have one glass of wine here or there..... Until last night.

I knew i should have went home after my second glass but I didn't and my friend started ordering shots... You know how the rest goes.

Now I have the worst anxiety and I am SO mad at myself for having too many. Sigh. I know that if I really want to feel better I can't do that to myself anymore.

Just wanted to reach out.

Hey Weeniedoglady - this is how we learn! You don't have to tell me three times .... sometimes I need to be told twenty times before something sinks in. Anyway, you can take comfort that the increased anxiety will settle down and you know where it's coming from. Big hug.

Thanks JAY,

I know it's not productive to beat myself up over it. I know what I have to do and I am moving forward. Thanks for the hug.... Big hug back to you 😊
