Therapy after drinking Tuesday, April 18, 2006
I had therapy today. It was interesting. I told her about my drinking and the fight I had with Steph.
She explained that my feelings of jealousy and envy are completely natural. (this I knew) However, I tried to explain to her that I felt that my fight with Steph shouldn't have ever happened. When she asked me why I said, "Because to me, "Bitterness and Jealousy" are negitive emotions that shouldn't ever be showed."
She tried to explain to me that all emotions are ok. She said "If you feel a certain way it's perfectly fine." She then tried to explain that my emotions are natural and it's ok to feel jealous.
I don't know. I had a good therapy session. I got a lot out. I don't know how helpful it is. I know the other day when I woke up drunk and a mess I immediatly looked forward to my therapy session.
At the end of my session she got really serious and said, "This behavior is killing you. The next time you drink like like you did on Friday, it may end up being the last time."
I told her I knew this and I am working on it. I am trying to stay away from alcohol.
On a side note (changing subject), I am getting a cold. Sore throat and stuffed up nose, and that crappy stuff.

Things will be fine. And I'm glad you're seeing someone. Honestly, I wouldn't mind seeing a therapist myself. I just had a bad experience the last time I did and am turned off to it.

Hey,
if you've quit drinking it takes time for your system to catch up - thats why you're getting a cold.
Keep going, I'm glad you've found a good therapist, thats always helpful.
Take care xxx [Clouds That Cry]

Heed your therapists advice. Alcohol does not solve problems. Make use of all the help and support you can get to stay strong in your resolve.
Go chase that cold away! [Holy_Smokes!]
