So, I havent posted in a while. Theres been a lot going on. I had relapsed at 61 days, drank for a week, and I’m on day 25 again currently. With all that has happened I feel like a complete and total basket-case. I feel like alcohol is consistently on the brain at all hours of the day no matter what I do.
Iknow that previously i had told a few people here that AA isnt for me…I wound up letting my boyfriend and a few friends convince me to at least try it to see how I feel about it. I am finding that I have my moments…some days I wish I could just sit and listen to meetings non-stop…other days if you mention AA to me I really just want to snap your neck. I have also found a 24/7 AA Zoom meeting… there have been nights I will realize I have listened for 3 or 4 hrs at a time when I just cant sleep.
For some reason this time around I am finding that I have been having some pretty angry and hateful thoughts toward people surrounding me that are truly only there to help me and bc they genuinely care. I’m really not sure where all of that is coming from but it is causing me to isolate myself again more often which in turn causes me to become more depressed.
To make matters worse…I had some other bs dropped on my plate over the weekend to top off what had already been an awful week. In other ways though…somehow I am coming out better this time around…and for the life of me I do not understand why. Everyone keeps telling me i am finally getting something back for everything good that i have ever done, for every person that i have ever helped. My dumbass automatically goes straight to the worst possible thought…“its happening bc someone is trying to drop the worlds most unsubtle hints that this is your last fucking shot, so dont fuck it up!”
Sorry to be kind of a downer tonight yall. I’m struggling over here. I do hope that everyone is well and on the most positive journey possible through your sobriety journeys. I miss chatting with you all. Sorry I have been so down and out trying to get back on track again.
