Day 1, all over again.. One day at a time

Thought I could drink or deserved to drink since it’s been almost 2 months since I’ve gotten drunk and I realized I didn’t miss it at all when I woke up yesterday morning regretting drinking and the choices I made while under the influence… I always get the worst Hangxiety and that’s also why I don’t wanna drink anymore… That was another reminder as to why I don’t drink anymore… I’m back at Day 1 and I’m upset but I know I’ll get back on track… One day at a time…

That’s what I keep telling myself but the shame and guilt are alittle over powering… I know it won’t last forever… Thank you for your kind words, really needed them.

Thank you Lorelai, I appreciate the kind words a lot… Been beating myself up pretty bad since yesterday… Today it’s not as bad but def still feel the shame and guilt of it… You’re right, sadly us addicts can’t drink… And we think we can but that won’t ever change… Thank you again for the support and kind words :heart:

Welcome to the community :raising_hand_woman:

Many know how you feel right now. Here is a hug :people_hugging:

I had to use those feelings to motivate me and get through those first days.
Take it one day at a time and before you know it, you will be back stacking those days up.

Try to look forward positively, it’s important to not let these low feelings keep you in a dark place.
Glad your here with us :slightly_smiling_face:

Hello :slight_smile: and yes… I’ve been prescribed medication for anxiety/depression… been off my medication for maybe about a couple weeks and I know I need to get back on it… just recently been going through a lot… and I turned to drinking thinking a couple wouldn’t hurt and a couple turned to shots and well you know how the rest goes…
I also have a therapist who I have not seen but I made an appointment to see her Friday… Thank you for the support, it really means a lot :raised_hands:t3::heart:
