5 days
Hey all. Today is five days for me just wanted to try something new to help stay sober. Tired of sabotaging myself and terrified of jail if I continue to drink. I'd say I'm a periodic alcoholic drink once every week and a half. The shame and regret of the things I have done drunk follow me everyday of my life and I have hurt others and hate myself for that. When I do drink I can't stop. Many legal problems 3 DUI's, 2 of which were me crashing my car. Thank God they were single car accidents and I didn't hurt anyone. Should have died in last wreck 5 years ago 95mph into a concrete pole and walked away. Seatbelt saved my life. It's insane as soon as jail sentence, probation over back to drinking makes no sense. Have been all or nothing in basically every facet of my life it's terrible. Only family I have in my city is my brother his wife and kids but I'm worth more dead to him than alive, basically estranged. Dad died in 2006, Mom remarried a know it all control freak and moved 3 hours away don't see her much but I love her more than anything. No kids just 2 Chihuahuas and a girlfriend who loves me but I dont know why. Sorry to ramble about myself just trying to give a little background. Would like to meet a few friends on here that can relate. Thanks for reading.
