On valentine’s day i fucked up again. I was doing good. I had two months but i wasn’t attending meetings. The desire was not gone and i guess i gave in. I was so sick, i puked my guts out for two days. My whole body is sore and im drained. I think i almost killed myself. I don’t know why this is so hard for me to stop. I fight it, but it always wins. Im a have to go see a therapist. I just don’t know what to do with myself. I missed a homework deadline, i missed school, i missed work. My kids know i was drinking and so does my fieldwork supervisor. I may have lost a dear friend. I lost $500. It just keeps getting worse every time.
Sorry to hear, but don’t be to hard on yourself. Like you said yourself: maybe you have to add extra help. Glad you are still here with us. It helps me to be here every day to check in sober.
Yes. I knew the cravings weren’t gone. I have to do better because I get sicker each and every time.
I am at the same point as you. Just hit 2 months & the cravings just reared up super strong the last 2 days. There was lots of rationalizing going on inside my head, that I can just have a drink or 2 - no big deal. Luckily I met up with a friend, who used to be a drinking buddy, who talked me into keeping sober just by saying she was proud of me. I think we all need that support. It sounds like you know you need to find a meeting or someone who will help you, who will conragtulate you & will help you keep accountable. That’s a step forward, and something to add to your sobriety toolbox. If you stayed sober for 2 months just out of willpower you can do even better this next go around with some more support & tools. You got this
Sorry to hear.
Remember you still have those 2 months, they are not lost.
Back in the saddle! Wishing you all the best.
Maybe you should start hitting those meetings, believe me that it will just keep getting worse unless you seek real help now
