What is your plan to get and stay sober?
My plan is to go to meetings everyday. It feels like a really difficult time right now but I know I have to have a plan in place. I know I have to get better but I can't stop thinking of how bad I screwed things up when they could've been avoided although I'd probably eventually slip into the same patterns. I just wanna feel well, sane, and happy with myself. I have no real support group as all my friends drink/use so that's where AA comes in. I think also I have to get over the shame of feeling like I need something like AA but I do.
