Hi Jammer,
maybe by the time you read this you'll be all done with your parents for a while. I hope so!I know you feel all alone, having to bear the intrusion that your parents are in your life right now. Just wanted to tell you that you're going to make it through this period. You are more resilient than you realize and you can use babble to help you cope.
Your T is only one way you have of dealing with things.
I just want to throw something out there-- take it or leave it-- my first T's quote that catches me when I start some phase of drinking more than a drink a week or so... "Alcohol is a wonderful antidepressant, but has some bad side effects, including depression". And another gem from my pdoc, "Without anxiety, there'd be no wine", "klonopin has fewer side effects than alcohol".
The last thing I want to do is to take away one of your coping mechanisms when you need them the most. I don't want to put any pressure on you either, just give you something to think about. The good thing about camp comfort is that the margaritas have no side effects but relaxation and mild euphoria. no calories either :)
off to eat my lunch. my diet lunch. one of my coping mechanisms is off-limits right now, unfortunately...
