There have been a lot of things happening in my life lately. And I just don’t want to feel anymore. So I really want to relapse. I guess I’m looking for help to get me through this struggle

Hang in there. You have done so good. You already have survived 100% of your bad days. You can get through this sober. Stay strong.

The thing is, whatever those bad feelings are, they will still be there when you sober up. And you’ll be hungover. And you’ll feel rubbish for relapsing.
Sometimes life challenges you. Don’t let it win.

If you relapse it will add to the list of bad things that have happened to you…at least you can choose not to make this one happen… you are the one in control…2 years is a long time…if you are anything like me then all the miserable times alcohol brought start to fade away… concentrate hard on incidents that led you to your awesome amount of sobriety time…stay strong

Don’t do it. Be an inspiration to someone like me on day 20. I hope I have half the strength you’ve had so far. Life’s a bitch but that’s isn’t going to change when you pick up a drink . Only very very temporarily. Please don’t x❤️

Sorry to hear things aren’t going so well for you right now. Hugs.
You’ve made it so far, what’s helped you most when you’ve had challenges before? You must have an awesome toolbox, would love to hear about some of your successes

Correct me please if I am wrong or out of order here, I mean no offence.
It sounds like a planned relapse? Are things really that bad for you to plan a relapse, is the outcome of drinking really worth it? I hope you don’t go down that road, you have come so far as people who have as much sobriety as you are the people I look up to. I’m on day 84 still early on really. What ever you normally do in your recovery keep practicing it, go to a meeting and give me hope that when I get to where you are that it’s still achievable and you can give me the wisdom to get through sobriety later on

Ah Dani - my heart hurts for how you must feel to be having these thoughts.
This was you in November, 2016.
Dani - no matter what is going on, you can’t go back there. Alcohol will kill you. No matter how much you are hurting, I know your will to live is there because you reached out. Drinking will provide an escape that will exist for moments only - then the inevitable repercussions will make your current reality so much worse. Please let us help you through this. I saw that you’ve done AA in the past. Can you get to a meeting and talk about it?

I made that mistake i was 2 years sober of drugs and alcohol and I relapsed over my troubles i was going thru bad break up, financial struggles and i was homeless once again because I stopped going to meetings and didnt reach out to those who cared for me instead I picked up the bottle and that wasnt enough to cure my pain so I picked up the meth pipe once again to block all the emotions I felt but I had forgotten the promise i made to my daughter and i broke it but now im getting back on track a month and 24 days sober and going to meetings everyday and helping those who still suffer with this disease please dont give up and dont relapse that will not cure ur pain it will make it worse trust in ur higher power and trust in his will not urs keep the faith

It ain’t about how hard you can hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and still keep moving forward.

A drink wont make anything better.
Just get better at getting better every day, meetings helped me do this, maybe they could help you too.

1 Minuit at a time. Little by little.
Take it from me it does not get any better
I was waking up in the gutter or else where. I had slowly lost control of all bodily function. I was unemployed. Had criminal convictions longer than my arm. Do I go further.
My friend don’t say I have not gone that far or that won’t happen to me.
This is a ruthless disease. 6 people a Minuit die to it.
Hang in. In 28 years I have not found a valid reason to drink. Poor excuse maybe.
We are here for you.
Your Friend in sobriety John
