well I stuffed up :0( :'0(.....

and it hurts no not the physical hangover side of it the fact that I let myself down firtsly then my family ( who I might add have being very kind which makes it worse in a way... Once I started to drink I didnt stop!! it was again that I had become another person and I hate it. I know the drill get up start at day one again and I will but Im so bloody scared I said to hubby if I go down the path I was going with my drinking I want to be dead and I ment it. I loved the sober days yesterday was a complete right off as I was too p***ed to do anything and today wont be much better while I recover. Im so scared and angry at the same time Im dont want to feel the urge to drink and in truth I could of fought it yesterday I just didnt want to. Im a stuiped ignorant dumb woman!!! and hopefully last night gave me a fright to realise that Im not over nor will I ever be over this dreadful disease...
*sniff* I need a cyber hugs and I think Ill lurk here most of the day

Hi Ang, I was the last person who thought I would ever go to AA but it is helping me, why not just try a few meetings?

Big cyber-hugs hun! I know how you feel.

Hi Angie,

You can do this!

I know it's hard, but you can get through it.

I think you will start to feel better when you have a few days sober again Angie, you are prolly still withdrawing or hungover now.
Just get through the next few days and you can look back and learn from this and go onwards and upwards!

ang! We're alcoholics, thats what we do. It's a disease. All you can do now is to NOT beat yourself up and be all depressed over it. Just pick up where you left off, because you KNOW you were happier sober right??? And felt great! The booze just doesnt work like it used to. We've all come to that conclusion.
Hugs, and congrats on day 1. I'm glad you've decided to start over Me too!!

You said that you have support from people, so use it. Don't beat yourself up. I think the guilt should remind you how you felt drinking. By no means don't dwell on it.
Take a deep breathe & please go forward. Use resources.

I went to my first meeting yesterday. I was scared at first. Could not find the room in this big empty church. Then this man came over to me out of nowhere and shook my hand. Introduced himself & I felt an instant calmness. He said that somebody had to show him where the room was too. He has been sober for 4 months. I felt no pressure at all, only sincere support. It lasted an hour & I will be going to other meetings. I ended up talking to a guy who had 19 years sober, in the parking lot, for about 30 minutes afterwards. Now I did not think that would have happened on my first meeting.
He said a couple things that really stuck in my head.

Later, I read some literature that I got & it really called to me.
I would say give a meeting a chance.
I hear everybody say to go, & yesterday I got a little clarity on why.

Love you Ang !
you're *not* starting again, you're picking up where you left off. Just use yesterday as a reminder that things never change with that s**t.

I'll be here with you when you get that 100, ok ?

Ang,

Thanks for your honesty. I had two major relapses in my sobriety and I understand what it feels like. You know exactly what you need to do - keep posting and let us know how you are doing in the meantime.

Hugs across the ocean to you, Angie.

Just pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and try again.
