So so heartbroken and afraid
So so heartbroken and afraid
My name is Kelly and I'm an alcoholic. And the pain that's where my heart is is so sore. It's hurts so much. I had to be taken to the hospital today to speak to a physiatrist. They did an ECG to see if there was something wrong but I know it's not medical. My heart is just broken. I can't stop drinking. I got Librium today and still finding its so hard. I'm supposed to be going into a treatment centre tomorrow and I'm so scared and afraid. I don't know how I will find the strength. I was at this treatment centre last year and I was happy there but I was in such denial too. But this time there's so so so much pain. Did anyone ever feel this heartbreak physically? I feel now alcohol is taking my mind. I'm so afraid and lost and broken. Thanks.
Aw, welcome to the site, Kelly! It's going to be okay.
You can stop drinking. Go to treatment and throw yourself willingly into the program. Pay attention, be humble, do what they suggest.
You can beat this. Millions have.
You may be having physical pain because you're causing it by drinking. I had lots of heart and stomach issues at the end when I was drinking. Pain, anxiety, fear, depression, hopelessness - it all goes with alcohol dependency.

Please don't give up Kelly. I know what you mean about the pain in your heart. Maybe it is your heart trying to tell you how much it needs you to get well. Just surrender to treatment and let others help you though this. Much love x
I think everyone has some understanding of your pain. We are all different but we are here because we feel a common bond. You don't need to worry here. Just be safe and tell us what you need to tell us. I hope the treatment really helps you.
Take heart Kelly,
How you are feeling is how most of us felt just before we recovered. It is always darkest before the dawn. It seems alcoholics of our type need to reach this point before we are open to the solution. A miracle awaits you, just around the corner.
Hang in there Kelly, the best years of your life lay ahead of you.

I am just reading over these messages I received here almost six months ago and have been moved to tears. The reassuring words, encouragement and love, reading them now with a much clearer headed and am astonished at the good heartedness of it all.
I went to treatment, a 28 day program, and am 6 months sober at the end of the month.
Each and every kind word that was written to me, it helped me in finding the strength to keep things together while they were falling apart; and I will be so very grateful always for that. Love to you all. And thank you, I really mean that.
