Hi all long time no post :) AH is on holidays for two weeks with the kids and I and I am barely functioning due to anxiety. I can barely be around him and don't feel like doing anything other then being a hermit and crawling into bed for the entire time. He bought booze for himself and me even though I've told him I no longer want to drink. So I wonder who will end up drinking it. I used to love summer but now I hate it. Too much free time and trouble to get in. I have a horrible headache, probably stress related. Anyway I need to come back here badly (no mtgs where we are for the summer and I have babysitting issues anyway)... Just reading others shares has made me feel better already!!! Xo
Breathe, breathe and breathe! If being 'here' feels better, stick around - we're all here for each other and the more the merry (or so I believe).
So sorry for your anxiety. Do what you can to take care of you and the kids and leave the rest up to your HP.
(((Hugs))) for you - I too did not much like summer 'break' & 'vacation'......It always seemed I worked a ton harder than anyone and didn't have much fun. I'm working on learning to do that differently!! I feel more confident that I can thanks to Al-Anon.
What would I do without Al-Anon & all the wonderful folks here? So grateful!
