My son got his first pay check today after being sober for almost 12 days. He paid child support, paid me part of what he owed me for his fine and is supposed to put some of it up to buy things he will need for the apartment he is going to be renting later this month. Sounds like everything is in order. Why am I so nervous?
Because we are programmed to feel nervous. We've learned from the past that there is often something to be nervous about. BUT, please try to live in the moment and not worry (I am speaking to myself as much as to you!). Its so hard, but we need to re-program ourselves or we'll spend our whole lives worrying.
ReplyDeleteBarbara, thanks. It is hard to learn a new way to think and to feel after years of being on guard. I am working on it again today.
