I really wish I would have told all my friends off on FB last night. Said no one ever.

Scary!

stark6935 06-14-2013 01:14 PM

Yeah, it's pretty crazy how I jump out of bed like in the morning now. I used to lay there for a half hour thinking life sucked, usually achy etc.

Carlotta 06-14-2013 01:33 PM

Got me! I thought maybe you slept with someone absolutely awful or something :c008:

Christopher99 06-14-2013 03:41 PM

Oh I have done that.............and then I forgot about it until a few hours after I woke up and the memory of it all came creeping back in. Bring on the anxiety........

I read this post earlier and it really helped me just now. I was walking to the shop to get some juice and started thinking I could get some wine instead...Then I remembered this thread and I thought to myself "no one ever said 'I really wish I'd gotten blackout drunk last night'". And I thought about how good I'll feel tomorrow morning when I wake up if I don't get blackout drunk today. So I bought juice and ice cream instead. :)

I was like; " Oh Geez, Really? " Good for you!!! Keep it up! Ya, getting blackout drunk is never ever ever a good time. The shame, the regret, the not knowing, the headache, and vomiting.....Total waste of time and money. I love that I remember everything that has taken place for the last 99 days.

great post!
Some days I get the occasional thoughts of drinking.I think ahead and think how I'll feel in the morning,always remembering what I read on SR.No one ever wakes up wishing they'd drunk the night before :)

This is so poignant for me this morning. I was feeling so low and sad yesterday.

But I made it. :)

dwtbd 09-15-2013 08:16 AM

it's also funny (not) how I would blame the approximate position of the clotheshamper(it being in a similar,though not adjacent corner of the room's layout) for it being well... moister in the am then it was the previous pm

james872 09-15-2013 08:20 AM

Lol! That's funny! :)

Sobersunshine 09-15-2013 08:25 AM

Lol! Glad it was just funny and not real!

dwtbd 09-15-2013 08:29 AM

well we'll just say not really funny( its a guy thing)

LadyBlue0527 09-15-2013 08:31 AM

Good post alphaomega!

I'm still pleasantly surprised every Saturday and Sunday morning when I wake up no matter how many weekends have passed. :)

How nice is it to wake up and to not have the first sound out of your mouth be urrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

silentrun 09-15-2013 08:38 AM

"I really wish I could relive those paws symptoms" said no one ever. Alpha that post was written right in the middle of my 4 month crazy train.

Yeyyyy on making it! It's not always easy to sit with those feelings at the time. In fact it never is but alcohol would only make you sadder

jesternudder 09-15-2013 09:50 AM

Even old hungover fresh from a slip me had to lol at that! So true!

foolsgold66 09-15-2013 09:51 AM

Damn, Alpha, please stop doing that!

susasober1 09-15-2013 09:55 AM

Whenever I woke up after a multiple day bender (knowing somehow this was the day I would have to stop), my head was racing and my anxiety was through the roof...there was no relief whatsoever other than just having to tough it out...why would I ever want to put myself through that again??? I pray that I won't! I still have visions of me walking up and down the back alley behind my house at 5am because sleep is impossible and I don't know what else to do with myself! Talk about a living hell...
