It's alright, no worries Rayna!
I'm so glad you've been able to mature so much in your sobriety and learn all these new things. I'm starting to learn a lot as well and I'm loving every second of it! Something you said intrigued me. "Who would have thought it would take me becoming an alcoholic to under the inner workings of my destructive thoughts!?!" That's absolutely true. I think our disease is a blessing if we choose to let it be. So wonderful!
