I signed up for the Thanksgiving dinner at intensive outpatient last week and I had to make a reservation in advance so that the people in charge could reserve a dinner for me. Well today I chickened out. I got scared of being in a crowded close quarters room because it's raining today usually they have meals outside on the patio but today I knew they were going to cram us into the clubhouse room and I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to handle that. Plus I was really sedated from some new medication they were trying on me to help me sleep. It's funny I still had trouble falling asleep but I woke up this morning feeling like I was on the bottom of the ocean. I could have gotten up and gone today but I just didn't feel like dealing with the crowd. I'm really going to need to address that I'll bring that up tomorrow.
Thus far I haven't played hooky or gone a
AWOL from program except today.

I will try and pin each new thing I share on this board so that people can see what I posted the most recently. Sometimes I will post about how I'm doing other times it will be an announcement.

I'm afraid of being in situations where I'm caught off guard or thrown off balance or surprised.
Social situations are a perfect example.
