My Stupidity Enrages Me.
My Stupidity Enrages Me.
I think I am at my wits end. I have betrayed the person I love most in the entire world. What is bad about it, is I don't even remember doing it because my dumb ass was in a blackout. This seals the deal. I can't keep doing this to him and to myself. I am not that person when I am sober. I am not a complete narcissistic ******* until I start throwing that poison down my throat. As soon as I drink I become the most selfish person on the face of the earth. This does it. I am done. I cannot believe the lengths of my stupidity. I need to get this under control and now before I lose the love of my life to a liquor bottle. Alcohol WILL NOT win. I wont allow it to control me anymore.

Dissimilar, No, I haven't. I rarely talk to him. He works offshore for a month at a time and gets no signal. For example, the last time I spoke with him was Monday and it was via text. I don't even know how to handle the situation.

Hey Dominica. Both in same position and I've no idea what to do. I'm completely monogamous and trustworthy sober but after a heavy night out I just lose control and blackout. This happened once before in my last r/ship and happened again on Friday. I feel like I need to stop drinking but feel a fraud on here! Don't know whether to tell them or if I'd only be doing that to make myself feel better. It will he hard not to drink socially as everyone around me does but plenty of other things I can do.....right now I'm just so depressed that I've screwed everything up.

Mizz, I am just going to start to go to AA again. My concern about telling him is that he will want to quit his job so he can be home. I know that is what he will do. I have been with him 10 years. I know this. I am just scared to death of losing him.

Yes, I do understand your fear. I think AA is a wonderful idea. You have to live your life and you have to be alright with you. No one can really say what is wrong/right in this situation. We can only walk in our own shoes and be comfortable with the steps we take. AA, good. Maybe posting here as well? Like you are now. You can do this. You already have before.
Hi Dom - I'm sorry you're struggling and that things are a bit of a mess right now, but I'm glad you're back with us.
I wasn't who I wanted to be when I was drinking.
I did a lot of things I'm ashamed of and a lot of things I still don't remember.
No matter - I have to take responsibility for those things, I really let myself and others down - not once but time and time again....
One of the gifts of recovery for me is never having to deal with that stuff again. I like who I am sober

Hey D,
Thanks, I am glad to be back. I really need this to stick this time. I hate not being myself...it becomes so tiresome and emotionally draining. As always, thank you for your support. Day 2.

Dom, for me it became more than tiresome, it was simply exhausting. I couldn't go through that cycle one more time and survive. It's good to see you back and I'm glad that you have a plan.
Boy dont I ever understand. I gave into a neighbors relentless advances for years one night after shots of tequila.
It was only a kiss, but it would of NEVER happened sober.
I still shudder at the thought. I'm married to the love of my life and would NEVER EVER EVER want to hurt him. And never would.
Unless I was drunk...

The guilt is gut wrenching. I can't eat or sleep. I realize that it is my fault and I need to take corrective action. Maybe this is the lesson I needed to get back on track. I will not drink today. That is a good thing. Thank you Anna and Alpha.
