Alcohol has ruined a lot of my relationships with friends and family . And it has got to a point where I’m losing everything . I thought I could find support in my on/ off bf as I am always there for him , but it’s just not the case and it makes me sad . He comes and goes when ever he pleases. I don’t have much friends and I don’t want to discuss my issues with abuse to my family , they will only label me and judge .

I looked into AA meetings for the first time ! But I’m super nervous to walk into one not knowing who and what to expect . But I think I need to go to one.

Ah it’s sad when that happens with a BF, I had one that I thought was good but then, when my best mate was dying of cancer the BF just went away on two holidays, also decided it was appropriate to be in holiday skiing during the funeral. Obvs he got ditched. I would have ditched him before the funeral if I had if been strong enough.
Sometimes being with a useless *#£@ makes you feel more lonely than binning them off and stepping out alone. I’m not certain if this is true for everyone but it certainly is for myself.
It’s easy to look at people in relationships and think there’s a great connection but a relationship can be a pretty lonely place to be too.
If you focus on your soberiety, use your new Sober life to try out new experiences, try clubs and things you never thought you’d enjoy, push your boundaries and just have fun being you.
