Am giving up

Nothing is working at least my head is not maybe it is called self sabotage instead of drinking myself to oblivion I do a lot of self talking that is negative, I think I need to ring up my psych tomorrow I obviously can.t deal with losing my best friend, having my sister lean on me for support whilst going through a divorce which myself am still dealing with, and work is negative the vibe is and I also decided to em bark on the adventure of finally putting my place on the market and move on leave the past behind......the last two months I have never felt so alone or even wanting to be left alone or catch the next plane and wish myself away, mind you this is all whilst I am sober....I am having panic attacks every day, I wish daytime away ...... Have to go to work tomorrow and just have lost a lot of motivation and trust in myself,,,,,,,, maybe too much at once? I also have no support well at least not the one I really need......

Never give up. I know life can get hard, and if it is to hard seeing a doctor is a good idea. We are here for you and you can do this. You have a job, you have a home and you are sober. Do you know how many people wish they had that. If people are asking more from you then you can give, tell them. Hold your head up, you can do this, one day at a time. Try not to over think things and just live in today. I am praying things get better. Congratulations on being sober. That is a good thing.

Life changes so quickly... I was in that space (2 overdoses in a week - a few months back) and today, its all different and back on track.... I know you don't feel it.... but the only constant thing life offers us is change:-)

HANG ON!

I am sorry to hear that you are having such a tough time. Everything must be extremely overwhelming. I think speaking to your doctor is a good idea. In my experience drinking only ever made any hard time i was facing much more difficult. Don't give up on your recovery.You can do it. Things always get better. Stay strong. Wishing you the best.

All that sounds pretty rough for anyone to deal with without support.

I hope you'll speak to your counsellor today Sidney
