Day 1
After another entire day and night of proving to myself I'm going down VERY fast today is my Day one with no drinking/using. This scares the crap out of me and just typing this my heart is beating 100mph.

If nothing else, just the fellowship will be a welcomed thing for you at the moment.
It's a very lonely place to be, where you're at.
I still remember it like it was yesterday.
Welcome Back.
Still,
Guts of steel. I also know the rapid heartbeat thing. Hang in there!
Listen to your body.No shame in going to the ER!
Love and many prayers my friend. Lots of people pulling for you!
Post as often as you can!

I couldn't even get thru one day. All the sudden it seems I'm totally obsessed. I know it's not a physical thing so why can't I just not drink or use? My head is saying I can start again right this minute. But then the other part of me says I really can't start til tomorrow so to just go all out tonight. I'm sick of doing this. I just **** myself off like this. It doesn't feel good and I hate myself like this. I want to get thru this night.
Still me,
Seek help from others..and it is an AA group or a doctor I'm thinking about...not your usual friends. You can do this, minute by minute...each minute you aren't drinking or using is a better minute. It doesn;t seem like it now...but this is the only true road outta the hellish pit of addiction.

How far are you willing to go... to live a life without drugs and alcohol? Get with some people in AA and/or NA... talk with people who KNOW what you are feeling. It does get better... you have a choice.
Please keep coming back and keep posting... welcome back.

Still,
Along with all the advice already given.
You can do this! You really can. Believe in yourself not the disease
If you fall get back up. If you fall again, get back up again
Love and prayers
