Support can only go so far tho.

If you feel you need more support from us, or your parents or your husband or whoever - then really it's up to you to find it - whether it's AA or some other group, or counselling or rehab...

I hear what you are saying. It's just that some of you (not to mention names) were responding to me in the past few weeks. And then I tried again to stay sober on Sunday and Monday of this past week, and I did not hear from a lot of those people. I feel like people gave up on me. But I can understand why they gave up on me, but I am still just pointing it out.

I almost felt as if some people here were just waiting for me to fail because they did not agree with how I was going about my recovery.

"But support can only go so far." I think you are right. Maybe people felt they were enabling me and felt as if I needed other support such as rehab and were tired of enabling me. I get it.
