I messed up and drank again. I was so embarrassed that I didn't come back here. Then I remembered I'm not alone and I need to be here. I just don't know what my problem is. I need to get it together but I'm having such a hard time. I feel like I'm losing my mind. I feel like I'm not even making choices for myself, it is just a compulsion to drink. I think I need to suck it up and go talk to my doctor or something. What I'm doing on my own isn't enough. Well, I got that off my chest and I'm back here.

Ah, Ck, so glad you came back. What it is called is Craving. It is REAL. We need to do anything to help us quit. Whatever it takes. I would definitely go talk with your doctor. He can help you get through the so difficult first several days of early sobriety. You'll need to make a plan to add to your needs. AA, SR, my God and all my friends who understand, help me to stay sober. It is so worth it. WElcome back Friend. We'll do it together.

So glad that you are back, Ck, and ready to start again.

Maybe, think about adding a couple of tools to your toolbox. Enlisting the help of your doctor sounds like a great new tool. Do you have any hobbies that you could resume or are you able to take an enrichment class of some sort - so,etching to occupy the time you would otherwise spend drinking?

And please remember your 24 Hour friends. We are here for you.
