Can’t get sober…

I am 20 years old and I come from Germany.
I’ve had a drinking problem for a long time and I can’t stop… I can only manage 3-4 days without drinking then I have to reset the timer again on this app. Normally I only manage 1 day without drinking and smoking… Does anyone have any tips on how I can get better clean? I’ve tried so many times and then everything starts all over again.

I don’t want to make assumptions but I wonder if you are doing anything more than just “not drinking”. I found when I decided to actively participate in my recovery rather than just stay dry the days quickly added up. Before that it was relapse after relapse.

And I’m sorry, but you’re wrong.

YOU CAN DO IT!!!

Hey dude, I know how it goes. For a long time, I couldn’t get sober because I wouldn’t get sober. I was standing in my own way of my best self.

@Farmer is 100% right, changing your relationship with alcohol is key.

Sobriety is simple, but it’s not easy, but it is worth it.

Hey, willkommen. They say you got to put as much work into recovery as you did in your drinking. Time, planning, commitment, importance. Having a good read around here is a great start.
