First off I’m sorry to hear about your dad and the situation with your mom. However, it looks like you are staying strong and figuring it out. All while busting your ass working multiple jobs.
Keep your head up and keep grinding away and focusing on the important things. We appreciate you checking back in with us and we are looking forward to catching back up when you return.
Hello my friend
Unfortunately I relapsed on Saturday and was feeling miserable and defeated
I am back anyway, Day 2
Just for the record: I was dreaming about having a drink all the 13 days.
When I did it I felt no relief. Beer tasted like donkey piss .
I did go to a pub sitting and thinking what am I even doing here.
We did go out, I came home safe. But next day that nasty hungover, day wasted, money spent, timer reset.
I would rate it 0 out of 10 as experience.
For now it feels a bit easier not to drink. I don’t have this obsessive spiraling thoughts. At least for now.
Happy I am back @Puddingface33
Oh love sorry to hear you had a relapse , I also had y relapse around that time.
Glad you have reflected on it and are feeling more determined than ever that’s happened to me too
I’m so glad you’ve stuck with us
One day at a time love , we’re here for you
So glad you are back, Helena. I am sorry about your relapse. It happens, though. Don`t beat yourself up.
I am glad you rated it 0 out of 10 as experience. I hope this sticks with you for a while.
But addiction is mean, it might make you forget it was a bad experience and sneak back in. I just had the idea, maybe you want to write it down HOW BAD it was to pick up these drinks? Just to re-read, when your addictive voice tells you another story?
Keep us updated, friend! I am happy you came back. Not all of us can.
