A pivotal point in my sobriety is when I changed my relationship with alcohol; you can learn about my process by clicking this link here.
Changing the way I viewed alcohol made it an easy choice to abstain. I encourage you to start changing your relationship with alcohol today!
What are you feeling physically I am in the same boat about damage
I used to feel the same way. Meetings worked for me. It was the last thing I tried and the first thing that worked. It was tough to give up my will power and admit I needed them and wasnt going just because I wanted to. Today Im over 2 years sober. Was a daily all day drinker didnt think I could or would ever stop until death.
Mainly just stress and exhaustion tbh. I’ve also noticed my hair thinning which I’m assuming is due to alcohol ruining my stomach. I’m very fortunate to not experience many withdrawal symptoms.
Im so disappointed in myself. I thought i could have a few but as we know it never stops till its all gone. Now i feel like shit this morning and i have to go to work. When will i learn that im not a normal person who can have 1vor 2 drinks. So very sad this morning
You’re here and you’re sober today. That’s what matters.
What’s a normal person? Who cares? You are a person that can’t have one or two. Have you learned it now? Bookmark this, screenshot it, record it. Look at this whenever you think you can have one or two. Because you can’t, just like me. Actually life is much simpler when you get rid of the notion that maybe someday… Our relationship with alcohol (and all other drugs) is over. Never again, one day at a time. And good riddance to it too. You can do this. Don’t go it alone.
Thank you i needed that. I took a screen shot of that so i can look at it often and when i think i wNt to have just 1 drink.
