Off the Wagon
Last night, I drank for the first time since New Years. I didn’t get drunk, but I definitely caught a buzz.
I didn’t take my meds, so I didn’t have to worry about any adverse interaction. I had one alien secretion (midori, malibu, and pineapple juice) and six buttery nipples (layered buttershots and bailey’s) – I can’t believe I got tipsy from that. I used to be able to slam at least 11 shots of jager before I got tipsy. I guess almost four months without a drink lowered my tolerance. I took a sip of jager and it was nasty as hell.
I’m proud to report that I didn’t have any urges to cut or otherwise physically injure myself.
Recovery, work, and life in general is going well for the time being. My meds seem to have me balanced finally. I still have a lot of work to do on myself though. Right now I’m reading “Codependent No More” by Melody Beattie. It makes a lot of sense so far.
Nick spent the night again. He didn’t leave until I had to go to work this afternoon.
