Hurt.
I drank from a full bottle to fill myself up.
I sank into a bathtub of rotted, dull, and empty cups.
All I ever wanted was a bit of understanding
My heart is a stone, threatening and demanding
Abandoned.
Alone.
This cold shack is my home.

Walking and being out in nature helps...
Basically any kind of exercise.
I started running again 2 days ago and I felt somewhat better. I had also been in a depression. I know what you are doing through and I know the pain.
I also agree that if it doesn't go away in a while or if exercise doesn't lift it at all, it wouldn't hurt to check with a doctor.
I just want you to tell you not to get discouraged. It might take checking around to find what works for you but the situation is not hopeless. There is HOPE!!
A couple weeks ago I was so depressed that I couldn't even get myself out of bed in the morning. I slept until I had to get up to do whatever I had to do and even then I had a few times when I didn't even make that. I'm doing better now. It seems like it has been getting better slowly but there have been improvements.
I'm glad that you're here talking about what is going on with you. It helps to know that you're not alone in this.

im seeing alot of pain in your posts. are you attending AA meetings and do you have a sponsor?
no meetings + no sponsor = pain, misery, and lonely suffering.
meetings + sponsor = progressive happiness

It's a strange thing-the way each of us connect here-and despite my (obvious) addiction-there is something about you that makes me want to make it all better for you-and I know I can't.In fact-you're stronger than me right now.
Maybe it's because you're so young-I don't know-I just read your posts and want you well.So much.
I just wanted to tell you.I do care.I can't really do a thing for you-but you get to me-I would love to see you make it.

Your post brought tears to my eyes; am I correct to say that you are overly depressed? I really feel for you.
If you were here we could take a walk; it's a beautiful morning. I wont be walking alone; because I have no motivation. Am feeling like a prisoner in my own home.
PM me if you would like to; perhaps we could help oneanother.
((hugs))

Ah the loneliness is the worst. I came to think it is my reason....The understanding yes, somebody to hold us strong and say they won't leave. Your poem does go to the point! Thanks for sharing....

BBXX............
You are commended on your sober time!
Your post actually gave me a nauseous feeling and my head throbbed.
You see..even after 11 months...wow..it brought me right back
to Day1...
BB..you can reach out to folks like Rose and Karim...our friends
who are struggling to have Day 2...it matters not matter whether
it is years or days...sharing with another sick alcoholic is what
keeps us sober one day at a time...share that strength within
you. Your strength..(I admire it) through your obstacles is
far greater than your negative feelings and thoughts!
Love sweetie...
