Back again

Hey everyone. I am back again... I failed in my first attempt after 15 days sober. I thought that I could just drink less.. and I did for about a week. But here I am again getting drunk every other night, making excuses for myself.

The catalyst, however, for coming back here and finding accountability, is that I did the stupidest thing ever. I am REALLY ashamed about it. I got wasted the night before a math final and woke up still drunk and took the test anyway. I looked like a hot mess, obviously. I just checked my grades for the term and somehow kept my A in the class, thankfully.

I just can't believe I did something that stupid!

Anyway, here I am, day one, again.

Isnt that always the way... been there sooo many times. Thought I could control it and it worked for a few weeks but slowly ends up back with a vengance and usually worse than before.

I for one, am SICK of trying to control the drinking... its not worth the hassle.

Welcome back!!

Thanks! And you are SO right! I am wasting a lot of potential being a drunk. So, that's why I'm not going to drink tonight.

Right now I am finishing up at the community college - I will be transferring to Portland State in the winter!

Glad you're back! Taking a math test hungover - now that's a miserable morning! I'm with shelly: it's such a hassle to try to drink moderately. Not to mention that it doesn't even work!

Hang in there - you can do it this time!
