Congrats on adding some exercise to your routine Angie. Great news that you are almost at six months! You don't give yourself enough credit for doing so well in such difficult circumstances.

3 hours of sleep/night would kill me. I have no idea how you get up and go Angie love....I really hope you sleep better tonight love. ♥

Hi all and thank you. I did managed about 5 hours the last couple of nights which is okay but just not enough in the long term. Cannot fully articulate how tired I am. At work at my desk, I felt like crying because I was so tired, didn't do it but was so exhausted. I ended up making a big mistake at work yesterday when I thought that I was being extra careful. Didn't get in trouble with my boss since the coworker next to me caught it and fixed it before it went in the system. Most of us in the office look out for each other. I made a mental note of the mistake and to be more careful. I know mistakes happen but it just stinks when it occurs.

So, I'll hit 6 months sober on Sunday. Very happy with that. Tonight, I don't have my son and I'm going to work on catching up on some sleep and it's going to be a cooler weekend which I am happy about too. Goodnight y'all. Thank you so much for everything.

I am tired of all the stress and I want to drink. I just want this feeling to go away.

SoberLeigh

What can you do tonight, Angie, to alleviate the stress in a healthful way - take a long, warm, aromatic bath; practice some deep breathing; take an easy walk; go to a movie.

Or stay here and talk to us, sweetheart.

We are here for you.

Angie247

Thank you Leigh. I'm sad to say that I just bought alcohol. I'm still in my car in the parking lot. Why did I just buy it? Do I want to throw 6 months away and start over? I don't know if I can start over.

venuscat

I hear you....we hear you. We get it love. And we have all been there.
But drinking doesn't make anything go away, not for us.
Well, it may make us go away, and eventually that is a permanent thing.
Not a good choice sweet girl.

Let's get through this together. ♥

venuscat

Oh crap love....please don't drink it. Do you want me to call you? I will. I can. I don't want to intrude, but I don't want you to be alone right now.

SoberLeigh

You really don't want to throw away your sobriety.

Return the alcohol; give it away to an adult; throw it out; pour it out.

Please don't drink it, Angie.

You have worked so hard for your sobriety. Please don't give it up.

Stay with us.

SoberLeigh

Angie - talk to us, sweetheart.

Please don't drink.

Angie247

I've poured it out. I'm very sorry for this.

SoberLeigh

Thank you; thank you; thank you, dear Angie.

Please don't be sorry.

I am so very proud of you for coming here to talk to us.

You have made my night, Angie - no kidding. You totally rock, girl.
