Fail.💩 But, I have identified the circle of doom. I fail. Feel like shit the next day. Still need to meet work and life expectations so, what do I do?

Well, whatever it takes right? If health anxiety is part of your life however, this throws a spanner in the works.

Now you are trying to function with a hangover and anxiety riding you like an angry jockey. It’s painful and hard. Inevitably, alcohol enters stage right with the seemingly easy short term solution. I grab onto it out of desperation and so, the cycle continues.

I wish I could take a week off work and just heal. Right now, it just is not possible. So I need to find an alternative. Open to suggestions.

Stay strong everyone. We CAN do this.
