Hi, not sure were to post, this is my third time to try and get sober day 1 yesterday. This disease had taken everything from me in the last year. Marriage, children and my home. Ended up being a daily drinker for past year and I am now full time carer for my mother because i had no were to live. I am sick of being sick. went into rehab two years ago and went well for a few months but slipped here and there until i ended up at it daily. The anguish, pain self loathing, guilt, fear and hurt this disease causes is insurmountable for not only the alcoholic but all the family too. I am attending AA meetings now and have found myself a sponsor. But the pain I feel is beyond words now. just feel such a failure and not worth anything. my name is Caroline x Thanks for listening.

Hello

I completely understand. I'm only on 15 days but I am feeling much better. I just can't drink anymore, ever, ever again. It is soul crushing. Spiritual rock bottom. Alcohol will not help. Time to learn to live. Welcome back!

Welcome back Caroline! It is not too late to turn things around. In addition to AA there is still lots of support here. You can do this!
