Struggling with all

First I love this community, feel bad for keep coming back, get a few days sober then weeks then Bang, all breaks loose, find a good mindset then all goes tits up, feeling of dispair, feeling I should listen to my gut instinct, I’m going to loose everything, I need to be the best version of me, alcohol, cocaine and Co codomol.

Never feel bad for coming back here because it’s the best thing you can do for yourself and we’re in this together. Maybe feel bad for the relapses because it’s the worst you can do for yourself Laura.

Find all the help that you need and can get. And use it. We can’t do this alone. Online, face to face, or however whatever, we need our peers to make it through. I’m glad you’re here. Welcome back and take care.

Many people don’t get sober the first time around. That’s why trying again and coming back is important. With resolve and a plan…one day it sticks!!

I’ve failed after a couple days, I’ve failed after a year. This doesn’t go away. For some of us drinking is dangerous.

Drinking has always been around me, but the worst was 6 years ago loosing mom, I used it as a coping mechanism, drank so much, the worst thing I ever done, the longest sober I’ve been is 7 weeks in 6 years
