Dang man thats tough. Its going to get better.
Maybe you just needed to prove one last time alcohol has nothing to offer you.

You’ve come to the right place. I’ve been exactly where you are right now. Not a great feeling. The fact you’re upset about it is actually good though. It is hard letting yourself down, but it makes me believe sobriety is what you want. These things happen. Keep trying and figure out what works for you. Find ways to avoid this from happening again.
Read around here and seek the advice from those with many years under their belt. This was my only sober outlet my first 2 months. Many people here suggested AA and I finally decided to go to a meeting. It changed my life and helped me deal with all of my regrets and made me grow as a person. Not sure if you’ve ever been, but it definitely helped me 
You won’t feel this way forever. Jump back on the wagon and keep moving forward. All the best!

I relapsed two weeks ago and today is my first day sober again. Youre not alone in your slips, we’re all here to help lift each other back up again. I was feeling the same along with all the shame and countless negative feelings towards myself, but the biggest one to be proud of is youre still trying! Stay strong, youve reached out to a group that will support you and thats a hell of a battle to concoure right there. Give yourself credit for facing your slip and you should be proud of yourself for trying again!
Best wishes
