Hi shandi, I found I couldn't stop drinking alone, at least not for long. It took daily AA meetings for me to achieve long-term sobriety. What I also found in AA were people who would love me until I could love myself, it's a rare day anymore when I feel even the slightest bit alone.

hi, i have been where you were two days ago, i dranked pretty much all day and started to get anxiety and felt like i wouldn't get by, but that's a lie from the devil. do you have someone in your life right now that loves you unconditionally? i really hope so because tomorrow the sun will shine, sounds like you are suffering from a hangover, at least that was the case with me. what made me want to stop drinking is because, i do not want to hurt others or my family on or off the road. i also realized that i was drinking about a quart of alcohol every 2 days, that is too much of a dependency. please evaluate how much this is costing you, especially the anxiety,it's not worth it. hope you feel better. my prayers go out to you:ghug3

thanks all for the replies, thankfully today is almost over and i can start fresh tomorrow without anxiety! i feel pretty good now. the things we put ourselves through, and it's not worth it! and my main plan is to focus on being healthy and occupy myself by maybe taking courses again. good night, and thanks again all ~shandi

Shandi if focusing on being healthy and occuping yourself by maybe taking courses again is not helping let me tell you that you do not have to be alone if alcohol really starts to cause you problems.
Been Alone it's not and easy, or comfortable place to be
I know cause when I star it drinking it was in social events
and when I came to see I was drinking for any giving reason
and Alone it wasn't no more in social crows or events
just drinking Alone rewinding my child hood life, and my teenage tragic events, what a miserable life that was
But by the Grace of God I Found Hope,that there is a way out
that I don't have to live like that that there is a better way out
just for today I made it to 3 months and on 5-9-008 I'll make 4 months but it couldn't have happen with the Help of God and my In-put
doing what I had to do for Lisa,and the support of A/A/ for me I can't do A/A not because I don't want to I have to treat my mental Health first then everything will else will fallow, but I log into S.R. its been my support so strap up and
commit your self to star some were only you could do this with the Help of God,God Bless I'll be:praying for you
