Hi @CHRISTO! You only die if you make the drastic change of going back to the first drinkš
Almost through my first day. Huge deal for me for starting this journey to a better lifestyle
@Formychildren hi there! I know exactly what you went troughā¦ iām also a grown up woman with kids. There were a lot of times the booze made me saying things i did not (or partialy) remember the day after. A lot of times the shame drove me again to drinking: to forget it, to convince myself that this time i could handle (and remember). Even those moments of shame did not stop meā¦ please hold onā:pray: itās worth it and -spoken for myself-find the courage to talk to us and keep in touch ! "One day at a time"
@Turtle thank you! That is normally what i do too. I am.kn day 2 so far 8:15 pm here. I have to attend a baby shower with these people I do not know as well (the same people I am ashamed to face again) I so want to bail, but donāt think that is the best idea. Weekends will be tough. I also work at a bar
Day 2 the tiredness and anxiousnessā and moodiness are proof my issue is worse than I thought. Canāt wait to feel better without booze
I canāt quit drinking! My depression is at an all-time high.
Recovery in my town is a joke. Itās all cliques. I trust no one.
@formychildren I made apologies to my best friend before i saw him back. Sincerely apologies. Heās one of my strongest damage icons to hold on in sobriety. He still avoids me, his comments are shorter than ever.it seems I have severious hurt himā¦ but the only thing i can do is accept his attitude at the moment because itās my responsibility to make it up, by staying clean.
@formychildren i also had 5 days (especially mornings) that i was extremely tired and sweating and feeling depressedā¦ keep on going it gets better! I took anti fatigue energie drinks an befact vitam from the pharmacie which helped, slept a lot and spent time on sports ( even if i was not into it!). It seemed that my body carried a lot of booze-damage that weights a lot and could drawn us into drinking againā¦ but we just need to do the opposite the first week(s) stay strong!!ļø:turtle:
15 days, more focused and hopeful than ever. Its different this time, I actually want to sober and Iāve been freed from the mental obsession with drugs
Came back last night sitting in the room of na ice been hiding and relapsing in aa rooms. I have to be around addicts like myself. Today Iām feeling sadness from years past; things I thought I had felt with are coming back and hitting me hardš£ no more hiding!!!
Having a clean sober day on house arrest with my loving wife and step son. Work at 5 yay I get to get outta the house
Today I started counting how many days can i go without heroine. I am 18 years old and some of my friends told me to try it. From then I canāt go without heroine 30 minutes to 1 hour. I put it on airplanes and doing it inside there with risk.

Hi!! Iām new to this forum. But NOT new to trying to get sober. I have had a long relationship with alcohol and have yet again vowed to finally say good bye to it. I am SO HAPPY to have found this forum. Iām very motivated to keep sober, but do not go to meetings (please no judgement, itās my prerogative at this time, thanks) so kinda feel alone. Hoping to make some online friends to help me stay on path, while i help them!!
@Michele how ya doing? Hang in there. Weāre here for you. You inspire me, Iāve never even made double digitsā¦
Hey to all my sober friends and family!!! Howās everyone doing tonight??
