Good morning all hope everyone is having a great day so far. I have a meeting with my therapist in 30 mins and really nervous. I will get through it though. When I come my husband will have literally half a cow we will have to devide for the freezer since half of that is out brothers. It's like 500 lbs of frozen meat oh what fun lol. Who knows how the rest of the day will unfold, I guess it depends on how I feel when leaving therapy today.

Apple mat-- I believe we both have sobriety dates of 229.

I'm on day 13. I feel very good. I am going to a restaurant tonight and then over the kids house. We'll see. I intention is to hold the line, and I think I have the strength to do it. My outpatient plan is really helping me. Happy Saturday everybody.

Hi everyone, I would like to join this group too .

I'm finishing up day 5 today, I have been feeling good thus far but I'm nervous about tomorrow.

Tomorrow is laundry day at the in laws house. Last Sunday I ended up in the hospital after drinking there so I'm feeling embarrassed still. I know I have to face them sooner or later so I might as well get it over with. They are very nice people anyways, so I'm lucky...

The other thing about tomorrow is that they tend to drink a bit and for the last few months I've gotten drunk there on sundays. But I know I can do this. If it gets to be too much I'll just go home, they don't live too far.

Almost made a bad choice today! It is a relief that I took the possibility off the table. I know what I need to do. Scary how close I came though😁. Playing the tape forward and prayer were helpful, as was talking to my sponsor and members of AA. I need to stay close to this site and AA or the depression and temptation can be so overwhelming!!

Thanks Chick!

Well ending day 7 like I have the last 4 nights curled up in bed with a book. I can't help but to think where I was this time last week. Completely drunk. Thank God I'm not back there!

Ladybug I've been thinking about you tonight. I hope you made it through little ladybugs sleepover unscathed!

Good night all, I hope you all had a wonderful sober night!!

Well...I didn't make it through day 4. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?

I feel like I'm possessed or something. Like something "else" is controlling my mind & body.

The day was going great & all of a sudden BOOM...I needed a drink & I needed it NOW & I did nothing to stop it!!!

I didn't have as many drinks as usual but I still felt like crap after! Nausea because I hadn't eaten all day (I know, I need to EAT!). My head was pounding. Guilt, shame, self-hatred, anxiety...

I feel hopeless. I had 2 months November thru January and for some dumb reason drank again :-( & I just can't seem to get over the hump again.

Will I ever get over the hump again? Is this how it's gonna end for me? Am I ever gonna get off this Merry go round?

All I want is to be sober...forever! I DESPISE alcohol! I pray some day I can look back on these posts and be able to say I am sober & happy! God help me.

I need a new game plan. Ideas?

Thx guys. :-(

Day 9. Hope everyone is having a good weekend. Went to the cinema with family yesterday. They have a bar and last time I went I was popping out of the movie every half hour to buy another pint. I recall the shame of finishing the movie with a stack of empties by my chair. I insisted my wife stop on the way home to buy more beer, and the evening ended with a really bad argument. This time all I over indulged in was chocolate, and we can all look back on it happily. No hangover today either.

Stay strong everyone.
