11:50 in Germany and I’m still in bed. Gotta get up and get this day started somehow, I don’t want to let the depression take over even more.
On today’s agenda: washing my hair (didn’t even manage to do so yesterday) and try my best to do something creative.

My ex is having a good time it looks like, being outside and in the sun, while I’m feeling like this and not able to leave the house even if I wanted to. It really pisses me off this morning cause I still feel like he should be there for me now. It’s so unfair to leave someone hanging like this with health problems after 2 years together. He even says he still cares about me deeply. I think I understand to some degree that he must feel burned out but it’s still making me so sad that he’s not here for me...

Time for 24 please.

And time to get real. Have been drinking insanely on and off for a fortnight. Yesterday staggered up to the local for must be the third time in 6 days to buy large boxes of Wines. 5 litres of wine per 2 days. I looked appalling, the best I could manage the cleanest things I could find, totally unwashed, there was a large queue and I know the person standing next to was trying to cover her nose. Girl on checkout was as always polite but could she was trying to keep herself from laughing.

Anyway here I am sitting in my empty trashed house, husband gone,coming back Friday, staying at his Mums. I have involved a close family friend in ou fight as his Mum was rather cruel to me when I tried to get hold off him..

I am trying to keep water down and trying to muster the courage to throw away the wine. I keep looking at & thinking just 1 to keep the withdrawal at bay, shaking like a leaf,sweating,stomach pains and my head feels like it's in vice, I physically can't stand I am lying on the kitchen floor. Friend from AA is coming by later, she said we can have a one to one meeting which I am grateful for.

I am dying slowly, but because I have some knowledge I was going to AA and a rehab group I keep thinking I can control my drinking. Hence, here I am sitting on the pity pot in the same pathetic position. I was in last time though drinking consumption skyrocketed and consequences are stacking upI have to change, I have go to any lengths for me. Sorry to go on like I do, just want to have something in black & White, Am going to get 24 hous today. Love SP xx

I'm sorry you aren't feeling well. Is there a way you can express your needs to him and tell him how you are feeling?

Congrats ceefarro and finalcall

Hope you can get the money back Jo.

I'm really glad you're back sweetpeacan - my heart goes out to you because I've been in that exact position many times.

you deserve better. May this time be the last time you ever have to feel this way.

The only way an alcoholic can live the life they deserve is to not drink, no matter what.

It's hard to understand why he would do that when you have a broken leg....but people protect themselves I guess....I know how badly I felt let down by my sister when I lost my Venus girl, she was going through stuff and couldn't be there for me she said.....I don't know....I only know that in the end no matter how much it hurts it is their stuff not ours....we can only choose OUR behaviour.

And hey, you can wash your hair today, and maybe we can find you something fun for entertainment. As long as you have enough food there, and you have us here....well, that's something.

Sending more love. ♥♥

No drinking for 24 hours. Thank you all for being here.
Thinking of you love. Sending huge hugs. ♥♥♥
