Different

This was a strange day (4-19-08).  In fact this whole time of coming off a binge was different from any that I have had in the past.  I have had a very strange sense of calm about things.  I haven't beaten myself up like I did in the past.  Could it be growth or something else?  I wonder.  I have been angry for stupidly picking up the bottle when I had the tools to use to prevent this.  I know there are people that were hurt and disappointed in me because of my drinking again.  I feel bad because of that.  I want to fix it but I know I can't.  The only hope I have of regaining that trust, if it can even happen, is to stay sober and prove to them that I am done drinking.  I guess I will just have to see what happens and hope for the best.
