Hello

Hi,

My name's Bambi. It's a pleasure to meet you.

For the past 9 months i've been trying to stop drinking but i've kept on relapsing on around the 30 day mark. I seem to just slip back into isolating myself and once i'm doing that it's only a matter of time before i'm drinking again. I think part of the reason this happens is that being around real people makes me feel very uncomfortable so i thought i'd see what i'm like in an internet community. I will try not to run away from here like i do from everything else.

So where i'm at now. I'm on day 2 again and feeling quite ill but very hopeful that this is the time i get it. This is my rebirth into the reality. I can't keep doing this to myself and my family when i know there's a solution out there.

So once again it's a pleasure to meet you and hope to see you in the future

Bambi

((Bambi)) - Welcome to SR! It's been a huge part of my recovery, even back when I was just lurking and reading. There's always someone here, and lots of posts to read and finding out we really aren't alone.

Hugs and prayers,

Amy

Thank you very much for your warm words of welcome. It really does mean a lot to me.

Day 3 is now nearly half way through and i'm feeling strong. Well not exactly strong but better than yesterday and thats all i can hope for. I'm not going to ruin it for a drink or a drug that i won't even enjoy.

Hope everyone out there is staying safe and keeping themselves healthy and hopeful

Bambi
