beginning weening. seeing a doctor on wednesday.

Fell off a little bit recently. Nothing bad's happened, but it's very embarrassing. I can't be sure what triggered it, other than that things have been going well for me for a while now and I suspect that I have the tendency to self-sabotage. I don't know if anyone has experience with that kind of thing but I'm all ears.

Going into Rehab this weekend.
