In my mid twenties and realizing I need to make a real change and transition into sobriety. I have hit a point where I risk ruining my whole life, including the relationships closest to me.
Five days in roughly and I have not been able to sleep because of guilt and shame of past mistakes. Hope this will improve, thanks for any affirming words.
The great news is you have youth and time on your side, and showing wisdom to want to get sober. 5 days is an awesome start and yes…the guilt and shame is all part of it and yes it will get better.
Deep breaths friend. Check back here often. You got this!
Thank you so much, nice to know I am not the only one that has done things they are not proud of and have decided they can’t handle the pain anymore.
Time to make a change one day at a time, thanks team.
Welcome, it is great that you are making this decision now. The best amends is changed behaviour. Past mistakes were a lesson not a prison sentence. These words help me when shame hits.
Hi and welcome here!
I hope this app will help you as much as it did for me. More then 5 years sober today, not to bragg but to show it can be done
