The two week group definitely cancelled due to lack of numbers so this 2 day group with maybe 5 will I hope be big enough for us all to get something out of it.
Although, as yet, I don't know what the approach will be. I can't deny a big part of me worries there is an unspoken thread, the pain is in my mind, the drugs you take are addiction / dependence based and the focus will be instead of managing pain dealing with addiction. I guess I will find out in a few hours. I went to sleep sometime after 11, been up since 3, no surprise, I don't sleep well at home so down here would be no different. I made a cup of tea at 4, the sun is up enough now for me to try a walk. Update tonight maybe, hope I don't spend the day in tears.
