Hi! My first time here. I’m at my absolute lowest with my alcohol issues. They are literally RUINING MY LIFE…if inkeep this up, I really feel like I’ll end up dead or in jail. I know that sounds dramatic but it’s gotten really bad. Please pray for me that I can finally give up this behavior and heal. I want to bear this addition so badly.

Welcome to the forum. Your story is similar to many who have passed through here. Prayers are good, but actions add up to the answer you are looking for.
What is your plan to get sober and stay sober?

Welcome. I think many people here know exactly how you feel. And it isn’t being dramatic, many people do end up in jail, or dead. I personally needed a ‘program’ a regular schedule of things to do to work on myself to get sober.

Same here, at my lowest with alcohol. I’ve been here a few times before but only lasted a few days before I was drinking again. It was always after I started feeling better after a several day hangover and told myself that I could just slow down. I could control it now that I didn’t feel the need for the “hair of the dog” to help me function through the hangover. But obviously I can’t control it. Maybe I thought I was for the first few days but then I was back to drinking to the point of passing out all the time. I have been missing a lot of work and of course lying of why. I have taken little airplane bottles to work just to help the hangover from the night before. I was lying to my husband and my marriage has been in jeopardy. I’m at day five right now but that is about the longest I remember going before relapsing.

Yesterday was very rough. Not because I craved a drink, in fact the opposite. I felt so sad, low and I’m sure was going thru a hangover/withdrawal symptoms. I couldn’t eat a single thing all day. My stomach was in knots. I also suffer back anxiety, so that was in major effect. Today I woke up feeling that same 
Was hoping today with no alcohol yesterday, that I’d feel better. Not so much. I just want to crawl up and sleep for a week. A pot in my stomach that injust can’t shake. HOWEVER, I’m going strong and intend to continue to. Thanks for checking in.
