Back again.

Hey everyone,

So since I last posted I haven't been doing to well. Back to my weekend binge drinking, and I am on day 1 after a 3 day binge. Anxiety is palpable, and I feel like garbage, I surely earned it.

I want to get back to where I was last year when I was able to stay sober for 6 months. I have to get back to the routines I had then.

Thanks for listening.

It's good to see you, Ekohe.

When you were sober last year, did you work a plan?

I'll post links to a couple of good threads in a minute.

Yeah but then I thought I was fine and stopped doing the things that I had been doing at the time and after I slipped once in february, its been almost every weekend since.

I am so tired of it. I have been this way more or less since I was 20.
6 Years of self torture.

I understand; I had about 9 years of misery.

Put your plan back into place and begin an exponentially better way to live.

Very glad that you are back.

Stay close.

Thank you Leigh, I will join that forum. I remember how good it felt to be clean for all those months, I need that again.

Thanks Hevyn, I think so too I am going to give it my all. The last three days have been horrible, basically drunk to a black out each night. Luckily did not do anything too stupid.
