I had a sobriety bday this week - 6 years! Wow.
Break up temporary but I'm quite sure it will be permanent. Mom recognizes my pattern of happiness new in relationships then fizzle, and drama. This time the drama was more private. Very hard going through this without reaching out to enough support. I'm really glad I came on here tonight - it's been way too long and this can be a great source of support for me. Basically I had to tell myself the truth, which can be very painful, but healing. No one can do it for me, and sometimes others are invested in my not telling the truth, so I struggle with getting validation, but it is there in other places if I am open enough.
The issue of anger in me has come up as a real struggle. Also, just my isolation is sort of a problem right now. Some days are better than other.
Doing well with yoga and meditation. Was really sick with a cold/flu for a while. Grateful for my email pen pals and my women meetings and the friends I do feel are my "cheerleaders." Thank God.
