I've been in tears, and I want nothing more than a bottle of wine or two and curl up in fetal position and watch TV. In solitary. I am not sure how to backpedal out of this. I wanted to post here first; can't believe I did.

ST I feel for you.

Early recovery is a real emotional roller coaster Applekat - if you feel the need to cry, or rant or rave a little, today then do it

I can promise you'll wake up tomorrow incredibly glad you stayed strong tonight

There's support here - you can do this!!!

But life is just such a bummer for me lately
I'm sorry it wasn't a great day ST but the issue wasn't yours it was the womans - don't let her problem rent space in your head.

I used to feel responsible for EVERYTHING. It was no wonder I drank.
Now I know I'm just responsible for me...the loads a lot lighter.

Drinking at someone or because of someone never works.

Don't let a bad day become a catastrophic one, ST.
You're better than that.

I'm sorry to see so many others here struggling too - Overwhelmd I think you're on the right track

Chick, Mariah, Free, Top - how you guys are doing ok?

congrats on 6 weeks Obosob
