[quote=Anonymous]I am a workholic in recovery but I only realized how much of a workaholic I was when I went to AA in order to stop drinking. Everything people said about drinking fit the way I approached working. If you're truly a workaholic and you want to recover, you have to have the courage to face what it is that you're working to avoid. When I slowed down initially, I had tremendous feelings of self-loathing. Took a long time to psychologically grasp that I was not a bad person because I was not working all the damn time. It's hard for me to tell from your post, OP, whether you would really qualify as a workaholic. Sounds like you enjoy interesting work. You don't sound like it's hurting your life, making you sick, or something you compulsively have to do. At any rate, if you take the new job, be prepared to go through some adjustment! [/quote]
