I’m on day 10 without alcohol and staying sober. Due to alcohol addiction, I lost everything including job, finance etc… I got a freelance work before 1 week and I was going to finish that but unfortunately the employer who given that work is not answering or replying to my messages. Means I think he don’t want the work anymore.
I expected to get some money after delivering this project but now I’m really hopless and I don’t know what to do. Next month I have car loan… i don’t have any money with me. before I earned lot of money but nothing have savings because of alcohol.
Keep your head up. Takes a while. The beauty of early sobriety is that we aren’t supposed to be happy with where we are at. That’s why we need change. Without these consequences we would just continue to use. Only up from here. You got it. One day at a time. You are supposed to feel the way you are feeling right now.
I understand how you feel Sarath. And feeling all this sad emotions will give you cravings for sure.
Drinking isn’t going to change the situation…it will only make things worse so keep focussing on today and how to get trough it sober.
Can you go to a meeting today ore join one online? Do you have a sponsor to talk to?
And about the job, do you have a contract ore such? Seems to me you have some protection you get your money you’ve worked for? Is there a headhunter ore other side part in between ore such you can go to to get your rights?
Keep yourself moving, you did great so do not dispear. Quitting alcohol let us feel all our emotions and that can be so overwhelming. Normally you drink to numb them and not feel them. Now you have to go trough them and deal with them sober. Every day is a win!
You are climbing out of a hole Sararth. You have to rebuild your life it and that takes time.
Day 10
Focus on the things you can change ore do yourself
I will join a AA meeting today. and let me think how I can make some money for living. I know drinking will make all situations worse.
Sending hugs and strength
