(((Caper))) I'm sure you'll be clear headed for your meeting. I hope it goes well for everyone. I imagine it will help to close a circle in your son's life, and perhaps he and his dad will be able to have a relationship of their own. (He'll ALWAYS be your baby, though!!)

I have been working on this being easier on myself in therapy and in EMDR treatments. I'm doing the "easy" stuff now - being more confident at work in my abilities - and I know that the drinking is a direct reflection of my self image. So, I have been doing my homework. My husband is going away to visit his daughter up north this weekend, so it's my most dangerous time. It's helping me to work on improving little bits at a time. For instance, I joined a gym (!!!!) and I can't believe I can pull it off. Paying someone else money is a good incentive for me to use their services :)

I do seem to have turned a corner in the recovery from depression and anxiety. The drinking, so far, I have kept out of the equation. I know it's a really big deal for me to face. For me to be able to restrict it enough so I don't black out has been a good thing.
