HELP.....Sobriety after relapse...is it possible? :-(
Hi all,
I'm really struggling right now. I had 5 & 1/2 years of sobriety & relapsed last October (about 7 months ago). I have never been a daily drinker....I am and have always been a binge drinker. I go to the bars every couple days & get extremely drunk & have a hangover for a few days & then do it all over again after swearing I wouldn't. :-( It's truly insane!
The first 1 & 1/2 years of my 5.5 years of sobriety I went to AA (mostly b/c the courts made me after a OVI in 2008). I never liked AA, don't feel it's effective for me & don't wanna go back. I maintained 4 years of my 5 & 1/2 without AA.
Is it possible to get sober again without AA? I feel miserable & despite having so many wonderful things in my life....I hate myself & feel truly hopeless.
I could really use some hope, advice, anything right now....I'm hanging by a thread.
Thx in advance,
Jen
