The wonderful thing about therapy is that we can just be honest about exactly where we're at, and it's okay. The things that you said you want to work on...honesty and truth and the ability to stand tall...are good and important things. The first step, of course, is staying sober, which is what you are doing, and that is an amazing amazing accomplishment For me, getting (and staying) sober was the first step in a long journey of healing.

We don't have to "prove" to T that we're "sick enough" to get their care and support. However we are is OKAY. And no matter where we're at, there is always, always, always room to grow and learn and heal.

Those two week breaks are hard. I'm glad you're reaching out here
