Last night I went to a Women For Sobriety meeting. It was an incredible experience. This just keeps getting better for me. No prejudice against dual diagnoses; many of the attendees are in therapy and on meds for psych ailments like myself. I'm safe and supported. It's truly like coming home. A totally different take on sobriety than AA, and one that I'm so much more comfortable with.
I have to believe that the time was right for this stuff to be happening for me; and that leaving work and having an IRL support system just spring up when I really need it is good fortune. Even though my anxiety was screaming for the entire evening (making me physically uncomfortable), it was a very soothing environment.
Holey moley. I just might make it this time.
