I surrender.

I surrender. I feel like I've hit a new bottom. Ive tried AA in the past. I realize I can't control it any more. I must surrender. Called my sponsor. Going to a meeting at 7 tonight.

May not feel like it now, but that is the best place to be. i had to hit a bottom in sobriety to fully surrender. Happy to hear it.

Good for you. I know how that felt. I was beat, 100%, & gave up any idea that I could ever possibly drink again. That's when I got sober and I'm so grateful for that. Congratulations on your decision!

You can't win this battle unless you surrender.
