Well I feel terrible. Like I want to vomit. And cry. I had my last day at a job with a tyrant bully boss. I feel so sad about it all- unappreciated, undermined, not respected and I worked so hard, so many hours overtime. I feel and it hurts. Lucky I don’t drink because I’d be blasted in about 10 minutes to cover up this feeling.
I’m 29 months sober And I know I navigated this BS to the very best of my ability and I did a really good job and I got out of there at the right time. And universe presented me with the next best opportunity and I start a new job in a week.
Thanks TS peeps. You help me more than you’ll ever know!

WOW this is perfect! I really felt with you as you wrote that you had a bad job and I wanted to give you the advice to slowly look out for small other oportunities to get your money from another job, but life already handled it, I like to tell myself: I will get all that needs to come in my life, it will come at the right time (~like this, its not so easy to find the right words from German to English😅) I’m so so happy for you!
I’m sorry for you, did you overcome the 
urge? I Yes I’m really thankful for @Eliz and so proud that you did it! (I not well thats okay too because here, today and right now you have the next chance to live the happy life you’re supposed to have

I feel emotionally like shit. So overwhelmed. I’m lonely, sad and depressed. Today was the first day I felt uncomfortable in my sobriety and it didn’t help that I miss my ex so much randomly. I also need to find a place to live in 2 weeks because my last place fell through and I don’t know what to do. So overwhelmed. I’d love a real vacation, but a mental vacation would be nice too. Sometimes I feel suicidal and because of that I just want to drink because I’m like fuck it if I want to die and I ever did why the hell would I stay sober. Yes, yes… find a therapist. Working on it along with many other things.

I need help. I’m starting to hide my alcohol use from my husband. He is away this weekend so last night I drank 4 pints and a bottle of wine. I went to hide the empties and had a meltdown. This app is my first step in looking for support.

Bless you i totally feel your pain … i hid my addiction from my family for so long … it was hell…once i admitted to myself i could then reach out to my family 4 help … the hardest thing ive ever done was ask … but it was the best thing i ever did … i slowly got on my feet and took tiny steps into my new life of recovery… i never thought i could change and get away from the crack and heroin… but today i celebrate 100 days clean… is there any chance u could open up to your husband or even see a doctor to get help ? Aa is a great place to get help … i wish u the best x

I know it’s bad now but everything, everything will be worse if you drink. Maybe talk to your higher power or your spiritual thing to ask you what you want and need?

I did not self harm in the way I usually do it (i usually do more bodily harm and permanent things) but I still did in a way… so I didn’t really over come the urge…
Less is better than permanent right? I hope you can do some things for your sell to feel better today.
