Did it again

Another binge. I'm starting to get out of the withdrawals today after stopping on Friday morning. Can't believe I let myself to do again. After my last one I said I would call a psychiatrist after my MD recommended him for me. I did but then backed out of making an appointment. Today I called and go tomorrow. I am so angry at myself.

Its still forward progress - despite - or because of the steps back. I hope it gets easier x

Changed it to 4

Had 2 appointments 1 for today and tomorrow. I just changed it to today at 4pm. I want to make a step as soon as possible. Even though I'm going on no sleep. My job is important to me, and I feel so embarrassed at what I did. I didn't go in. I really hope I'm good at talking about everything that has gone on

I know that feeling all too well... I hated myself a bazillion after each binge. It's awful. You made a call and that my friend is huge!!! You are moving in the right direction and you should be very proud. I'm rooting for you!

Hey, I know it's so easy to do and so easy to feel awful and low down after you've done it, but every time it happens it brings you ever closer to the day that you will not choose to drink in that split second of weakness.

research has proven to be true about that. We didn't become what we are over night so we aren't going to become what we were before ever, but we can become someone who has won the fight with perseverance and experience.

Hang in there. Hopefully this will be your last one. If it isn't you will keep trying till you win... You can do it.

Sitting in the car waiting to see the Dr. Got about an hour. My biggest worry is me losing my job. I felt like that last time...and now here I am again. I guess I'll find out tonight

The best you can do is work on yourself and finding a way to end the drinking. Be honest with the Dr, there is nothing you could say that they haven't heard before. For me it was very therapeutic to tell someone else in confidentiality, hope you get the same kind of relief.

Back in June I did the hard step of telling my MD. Hoping he'd recommend some which he did. Unfortunately insurance didn't accept him etc and I let it go. But at this point I realized this is an investment in myself.

Good for you! A good therapist is priceless. It takes work, but the pay off is HUGE.
