Bad day gone worse
I woke up this morning and I wasnt in a very good mood, said my prayers and all and i just couldnt get out of this funk. I then went to work hoping things would get better and as soon as I got there I was given some papers which made me mad at myself. It seems some of the things I did while I was drinking has came back and is biting me in the tail. I know I brought this on myself for being irresponsable but I am getting more ane more ticked at myself the more I think about it. I am wanting to drink and forget about it but I know that it wont go away and it will only get worse. I am trying to be strong but it is so hard to be. I keep saying to myself why did I ever have to take that first drink 20 years ago, why did I do this to myself. Sorry just venting some and had to get that off my chest. Thanks for listening.

Yes, very true. It will get better, just don't drink.

Okie,,
u can't change what is done, you can only change for today.
Believe it or not, the farther I'm away from my last drink, the farther I am away from my last bad day.
AA has taught me to become responsible for my actions.
Tell you what, do you journal ? Write how you feel down. Keep doing that every day for a year or so, what ever it is that's going on inside your head is only a temporary thing.
Just don't pick up a drink, Trust God, clean house and help others.
I can't speak for everyone else on this site but, it's turned my life around

thanks the craving only lasted 5 minutes at the most so that is good, and I didnt lose my cool which I have done in the past but not today. Which is a very good thing, I know I will have many more days like this but they are getting farther and farther between them. I am so glad I found this place and have you all for my friends so I can vent if needed. Luckily I dont have to very often.

boy when it rains it pours, I just found out a friend who was in my AA meeting group passed away the other night. I have known this gentleman for a few years, I was good friends with his son who commited suicide a couple of years ago. RIP Carl
