My second time trying to get off alcohol. Managed to get to 3 months nearly last time then failed miserably. Recently I had a horrific binge and I’m back trying again. Over 3 days at the moment.
Welcome Back. Can you go to a meeting? Do you have a plan? Good Job on your sober days today.
I can’t find any meetings locally. No plan really. Just removing myself from situations. Have more determination this time as it’s started to affect my work amongst other things. Thanks ![]()
What do they say - a failure to plan is a plan to fail? I desperately, but randomly, tried to quit and it never worked. Make a plan to do something every day connected to recovery. Get a quit lit book, read a chapter a day or every other day and journal or post on here about it. Or find a recovery podcast and regularly listen to that. Go to a meeting regularly. There are online ones so you can stay at home.
That link is for AA, there are other programs. Spend some time really focusing on why and how you want to recover. All the best. ![]()
Many online meetings. Check out the website Everything AA
Good evening.
I am new here and this is all new to me… well being on one of these apps for sobriety. I got clean off alcohol and cocaine and was in rehab of 2023 after my husband and i split and just got really really bad. So bad i ended up inna hollar in someones shed . Well i got clean and then i had another horrible relapse after 6 months of being clean… now i am looking back and thought ,wow, i was a way better when i was clean. Well here i am trying again because i completely hit rock bottom again and lost just about everything i worked so hard for in the last year. So here i am… trying and looking for supportive people in my life.
