Another thing......

I think being an addict - and active addict is like being autistic.  I was so lost inside myself - I couldn't stand being touched - I didn't want anyone near me.  I even felt that way well into sobriety - I was such an isolated mess inside myself.  Guess what?  Now I don't completely jerk away when people touch me - unless it's their McDonald's on my leg - and even THEN I just moved my leg away politely.  Every time.  See?  See - my life is so much better now.  It's so much bigger and I am so mess less horrible and weird to be around.  RIGHT????????  Bye.
