i'm back

it has been over a month since I logged on and it has been a really bad month; I have been on a 4 days in row of drinking, which is really bad; so much is happening right now, so much is out of control;

the relationship I have been in is over partically due to my drinking and I am trying to pack and move by next weekend, hopefully I will be putting a deposit down today; but what I need most is to not spend another night under the same roof with the man; so tonight if I can't find a friend to stay with I am going to try doing a bunch of back to back meetings to stay out late without drinking and get to the house after he is asleep and spend most of tomorrow packing if I can get some more boxes today

my younger sister had a mastectomy for breast cancer 6 days ago and watchig her makes me I wish I had her strength and courage

I want so much what I see in others, I just can't seem to find my way

just for today

I am trying to figure out a way not to be in this house at the same time as him any more; I get sick to my stomach when I'm driving toward the house; I don't have a lot of friends due to the drinking and my relationship with him; I know that the sooner I move out the sooner I get on the right track to soberity;

Welcome back

Is your relationship over ALL due to your drinking?
Is there any hope of turning it around? Do u want to or is it better to just move on?

God bless you and your sister

Welcome back to SR. Glad you have made it back. I can understand the feeling..I am with my husband, but I stay away from him..he works all day, so that is cool..he goes to bed early..so i go to meetings in eve..or had been out to class, and babysitting my grand daughter..we dont see each other for the most part..I can't move out right now..i have no where to go..unemployed and no mula..so if you can..that is a good thing if that is the best for you...I concentrate on staying sober..first and foremost...and that is what I am thinking of all the time..I bet atleast 20 or more times a day i say the serenity prayer..that seems to help..meetings meetings..great place to be..and to meet new friends...let us know how itis going..we are all here for you..glad ya here.
