Going to my 3rd meeting tonight. Active AH still fighting it hard. Came home with 2 six packs and then tried to guilt me in to not going because we were going to go over bills. I said we could do it tomorrow and he came up with 3 more reasons why tonight is not a good night. I just feel like if I tell yall I'm going then I will be more inclined to go, because I don't like to flake out after I've promised something. So I'm going.
Good for you! Hope you made it to your meeting and found some peace!
Namaste

Good on you Cmag - good on you.....I do remember it feeling really strange to focus on me and put me first, yet also gratifying as time went on....my hope is this is similar for you!!
