I'm praying for you now that you don't have to go thru this again.

You are always in the collective thoughts of SR, that will never change. What we really pray for is you to finally find it in yourself to want to quit. Until you do, nothing will change my friend. The ball is in your court.

If you're like me, you'll go into victim mode and feel sorry for yourself after you binge drink. Somehow, you've got to get out of that state of mind because once you concede defeat as a victim does, how are you going to return to battle?

Yes, get up, dust yourself off and get ready to fight. Do something differently because whatever you're doing isn't working. Have you considered AA?

We're all here for you and believe me when I say, we all understand. So what are you going to do with this knowledge that you've acquired about yourself? Will you lay down and die? Or will you get up and fight like hell? I hope you choose the latter. I'm praying for you, I mean it.

RJY - We all believe in you and know you can do it. Most of us have felt hopeless at times, but here we are - we made it - and you can too! You sound disgusted with all the ups and downs. You can get free & never have to feel this way again.

There is nothing easy about this. Expect it to be difficult, plan for it. Get through it, minute by minute. You CAN do this, it is possible. Keeping you in prayer.

Ah RJ hon....I'm sorry to hear how this has you so badly pinned under right now. I have no idea if you made any sort of change or plan last time..but as Anna says...you gotta do something different.

I sincerely hope you make a new determination tomorrow with a solid action plan.

Pray and truly, honestly surrender. Visualize giving Him this problem completely. Then follow your gut, when He puts the people and situations in your life to help you climb out of this hole, listen and follow. You've got my prayers!!
