After 3 1/2 months
After three and a half months I am sitting here drinking my 3rd beer. I am currently under a huge amount of stress. Please help I do not want to relapse if I stop now will tomorrow be doomed? I don't want to go back there. I just quit a job that caused me so much stress I had no choice and my husband has given me no support . So I guess I am drinking because of self pity. I am feeling very alone and sad.

Sammy...sorry you're struggling. I almost caved today myself. It's not worth it. Just dump out all of it...play the tape forward...you are going to feel like s*** tomorrow morning...drinking will only make matters worse...THINK ABOUT THE 3.5 months you have!!!

Hi Sammy, you're in the right place!! Relapse is a scary prospect for any alcoholic, but unfortunately it happens to the best of us.
Tomorrow is never doomed!! You have the power to put that beer down now and start fresh. Drinking more will only cause you more anxiety, I'm sure you know that.
Never feel like anything is doomed - you are here, that's how I know there is hope for you
sending you the strength to put it down and get some water!!

This is an opportunity for you to strengthen your sobriety and become more selfreliant. Push past this into the you that can do this.
If you keep drinking who knows when you'll come out of it and in what shape.
Dump the booze, go to a meeting.

Good for you for stopping, I was 3 months in when I started drinking one day, when I got to 3 beer I realized what I was doing wasn't who I am anymore and stopped,, it made me not want to drink even more, that was a little over a month ago now, this will make you stronger stopping now, good choice.

So after my 3 beers last night I am back on track again today. Thank God for that!
I didn't have any cravings
today not to say they will not come tomorrow.. I will always have to just go one day at a time. Thank you everyone for your replies last night I needed them.
