surrendering to onother addiction

 Well since last time , I told u guys my progress , about my move to another town , with the 74 year old man , turned out to be an alcoholic I didn't have a car so the only way I could get out of the house was to go with him and he drank from 1 pm to 8 pm and I was the designated driver and than I started to and I realized it was going to be a problem, and believe me I liked it , better than being stuck at home . In the mean time I joined the senior citizen center in my town where they pick me up for lunch and their daily functions and boy  what a twist in my life . cant go wrong here I'm the youngest here and feel safe here ? Than getting back to alcohol I had to decide what to do because the 12 step program never worked for me  , I decided to give it another shot on my own this time not forced to me by order of the courts so with my SSI check I bought a cheap car plated insured got my license reinstated just yesterday made a doctor appointment with a head doctor to see if they can help me with my disorders and joined a church , hoping it can help me out with this journey I found a cheap point and shoot camera which I will take photos and post them on my album on this site , now I'm broke and also a got gas in my tank, and my Medicare is in effect. I'm kind of proud of my achievements but also scared I'm having to many episodes of feeling high anxiety and loneliness . My brain needs a tune up I'm getting old and I may not have time to be happy and content . I crave happiness hope it becomes a reality not a fantasy , and my next step is trying to save some money and get my own place .
