Day 1 again
Day 1 again
Yep, back at it. I'm just full of so much shame and remorse. Picked up my big book and have been doing some reading. I feel like this is my secret. Recently divorced, loss of my grandma. Trying to adjust to life and drinking wine at night isn't helping me at all. I just can't do it anymore. I'm sick and tired of being sick and tired.
Here's to recovery, and serenity.
I'll stay close to you all. I need your support. I can't do it on my own. I can't. And I'm full of fear for returning to meetings.

It's going to be ok, ontherightpath. You sound ready this time - and we have to be ready.
It's understandable to feel remorseful, and it's ok if it helps you be determined to quit - but try not to let shame hold you down. You can rise above the negative feelings and reach out for a wonderful new life. I was dependent on alcohol to help me cope, but as you said - it doesn't do a thing for us. Rather than calming us down, it actually creates more anxiety. We're with you as you get through your Day 1.

Been in your situation many times. Only another alcoholic can really understand the misery of coming off a binge. You know you need a few days of rest while you detox. Try to clear your calendar as much as possible and take it easy.
