I'm really stressed out really stressed out

OK here's the thing we are leaving for the weekend I'm looking forward to spending time with my hubby and 2 girls but not looking forward to being around other people my emotions are still all over the place..ugh....before it was take pills before I left, take some more when I got there etc. It's going to be a long weekend cause were going to the amusement park and I am just hoping that I can have fun and not worry if I'm gonna snap at my hubby and girls.  My question is how do I cope????

2) This person who shall remain nameless keeps coming on this site to just stir up trouble and I have stayed out of it since day one and let all the peeps with more experience handle the situation, but really this person is just pissing me off, if this person knew the real struggle that we are/have been going though to be were we are at....really? I need to get it off my chest cause it's been bothering me I know it shouldn't but it does.

We cant go back liz, all we can do now is make new memories, and you will.  I used to make my kids sit on the couch and hold hands when they would fight.  In chaotic moments of my life i reflect back to the faces they had while doing that, ultimate punishment for them, ultimate pleasure for me!! lol

I envy you...You are stopping at a point where you still have years with your girls ahead of you. Do not ever put meds before them; if you do, as I did, those lost years will catch up to you and break your heart some day.
Now go and have fun. Let us know how it went.

I'm trying to recall how many days clean you have. Wasn't it day 5 back in early September? Anyway, I think that you've got enough clean time under your belt to handle the weekend. I'll lay you odds that the worrying about it turns out to be far worse than the experience itself - in fact you'll probably have a great AND, most importantly, you have to start making good memories without the meds. That is a foundation to long term recovery, and something that is hard to do. Like you, all of my past outings, holidays, partys always involved pills. But now I have some great memories of good, clean fun, and I hang on to those. So, go eat some crappy food, ride some rides, and enjoy your family.

As far as #2 goes, well, I have to stay out of it.
