Another try another fail
Id think Id learn after the lessons from my last relapse but it seems not. I made it just over two weeks sober then had 5 drinks saturday at a special occasion with friends. Aside from drinking itself nothing bad happened at all. We all had a great time I was home (had a DD) and in bed at 10:30. The worst part about this is I have been consumed with guilt since. Went bowling last night and had two beers. Im just venting here because I truly dont know what to do with myself. I hope this isnt another trip down the rabbit hole.

The support I have is mostly reading here. I get to an AA meeting once a week. Been
beginning to attempt AVRT in the last couple weeks. Well my addictive voice was doing lots of talking and I caved. Good news is I dumped the whiskey at my house that night cause it was too tempting for days. Gonna begin therapy soon. The enormity of staying sober for life is just more than I can handle sometimes.

My advice is don't wait on any of that stuff - if meetings work for you, maybe go to more?

Get on to therapy as soon as you can get an appointment

Fallow, Just try to do it a day at a time. If you are an alcoholic like me you would have a double dose of concience. I can only stay sober and live day at a time. I also have relapsed on 3 occasions and after 3 yrs of sobriety, it only gets harder. Being sober is a pretty good alternative

Thanks aboveit..I went thru all manner of drug addiction and slowly was able to quit all of them but alcohol is my last and hardest. I think its a combo of the social acceptance of drinking and the times between drunks where i drink 'normally' that keeps me hooked. Problem is I drink to escape problems anxiety and stresses. Hope one day I will get it together like your son.
