Thanks for the empathy. I'm sure you understand, however, that going out becomes an obstacle at times. There's a part of me that knows I'd feel better if I made the attempt to get out once a week, or so, but introspection & taking inventory outside AA seems like the correct path. I know I'm just isolating &, as you wrote, it "does weird things to my head." It's hard to fight inertia, though. I'll try to make my committed meeting on Friday. I'm also not sleeping much lately, which makes me feel even more "out there."
