It’s funny because just yesterday I gave myself all the permission to drink.
Me and my boyfriend are in different countries and I don’t know if I’ll see him in a month or in 6 months. He doesn’t know it either. Romeo and Juliet had it easier than us, that’s for sure. So everyday I wake up and I ask myself why would I not drink today? As if one single thing is going as planned in my life.
Excuses are always so pathetic but they are very effective too.
But I guess me being here means something? I don’t know. I’m the queen of renunciation. Can’t give y’all or myself any promises.
Life sucks. Alcohol sucks harder. I suck ultimately.
There is one thing I know. I’m tired of losing track of the time. I’m tired of feeling the extreme low after extreme highs.

Have a good read around. This is a great community if you want to stop drinking. We all need support. Well at least I did. I couldn’t do it alone.

Welcome to the family Hun. You took the first step and that’s the important thing. I like you used alcohol as an escape. Drinking numbs your feelings for little bit but after they just come back. I’m advice is face those feelings even if it’s a little at time. Keep busy when you feel urge to drink. Keep your head up, keep going. An know you got all of us in your corner.
