I feel drained

I gotta alot of shit going on and my disease is knocking at the door…its hard to vent to people, I feel like I don’t have anybody in my corner. And I know using is not going to make me feel better but I’m used to doing that. Need something different.

You do need something different and NOW. Go for a walk or run. Read a book a focus on the words. Go see a movie. Meditation. Anything to let the urge craving pass

Well that’s why you have us! I can’t vent to husband- he’s not an alcoholic he doesn’t understand. Or my best friend for the same reason. If you can post what you’re feeling somebody on here will have already been through it and can offer some advice. Or at least a “ya I know man it totally sucks” and it helps. Just because you’re drained right now doesn’t mean you will feel drained tomorrow. Take a walk, go to bed early, try to get those endorphins going.
