hello

Hi everyone...I just wanted to check in. Well I made it a year and two months without drinking and then I have been off the bandwagon for two months now. I know this is no excuse, but my wife left me after almost 17 years of marriage and I have been extremely sad. So in this two months of non-sobriety I drank hard about 6 times. I feel really ashamed and a few of the times I went right to the coke too. I think I had the mentality that I was going to drink again after a year. So I really set myself up thinking wise and then you add on the sadness with an end of a relationship, it makes a relapse ripe. This is day two and I am feeling vulnerable.

Hi iguy! Welcome! Sorry to hear about your marriage. Were you working a specific plan? You're in the right place, that's for sure.

Hi Iguy,

Welcome! You have come to a great place. I am new so just wanted to say you are not alone.

Also, maybe meetings or therapy of some kind and see a doc too. that can help.

Keep posting!

Sorry for what you are going through, I noticed you are located in the valley. Not sure if you know but there are really great CA and AA meetings out here if you get scared of this continuing. Take care of yourself!
