I DO like what I learned about the Addictive Voice (AV or AVRT), but seriously??? I wish it was THAT easy for ME to quit!
Soooo....I feel I have 2 choices:
1. Keep drinking and end dead
2. Go back to AA like I did when I had 5.5 years of sobriety
I don't want to die so I guess I am gonna throw myself back into AA!
*Biggest problem: the cravings are SO STRONG and hard to overcome this time around....I'm truly exhausted! Giving up sounds like a good option sometimes.
Sorry to be so depressing....I'm just really still struggling. :-( :-( :-(
When you went to AA did you
Get a sponsor?
Go to daily to meetings?
Work the Steps?
Some simply attend meetings which is the fellowship, but not the program of Alcoholics Anonymous. The program is the above three suggested ways..... I would emphasize strongly suggested.
If you did those things, what part(s) did you struggle with??
Kind Regards
