Today I had coffee for the first time since my incident. Apparently they do not allow caffeine in detox & only make coffee for AA meetings. If I ever wondered if I have a caffeine/coffee addiction, I do not since I did not suffer any withdrawal. I also stepped on the scale and was shocked to see I had lost 8 pounds. Normally this would make me happy but it's because the food in detox is unedible & after barely eating for so long, your stomach adapts to that. I'm still working on trying to eat more since I know I need to for health.
One of my fears from my incident was that I would lose my job. I was scheduled to work Thursday & Friday & had no way of contacting them to let them know I wouldn't be able to make it in. I am extremely lucky to work for a great place that is not firing me & is letting me come back full time starting tomorrow. I recently got this job, so I was extremely nervous. If things can't be worked out with my roommate, I will need that income. In fact, for the first time in my life, I will likely have to find a second job if things can't be worked out with my roommate. I like my apartment & want to find a way to keep it. I'm an adult so I can't give up snd go live with my parents or beg my soon to be ex-husband to let me move back in temporarily. It would be hugely confusing to our daughter & she has been through too much already.
