Wow
 
Sorry folks, it appears my avatar is bs.

I relapsed, again. &2 days. My plan is not working. I cannot keep this going. My anger is huge, hulk. Always near. But I have to add to my plan. AA is an option. But my parents are dead. I have a child and am s. Know what, **** it.

TomTom75 03-28-2015 12:31 PM

Don't give up. I feel your pain

aistar 03-28-2015 12:35 PM

You can do this Patman.You always gave me good advice and I believe in you.

Della1968 03-28-2015 12:39 PM

I believe in you too.

SoberLeigh 03-28-2015 12:41 PM

I believe in you, also, Patman; please don't ever give up.

Sending love.

I like how you shared AA is an option.

Any help from someone who can teach
us about our addiction and feed us some
healthy, affective knowledge about it
so that we can incorporate it in all areas
of our life is a great start to remaining
sober.

Listen, learn, absorb and then apply
that knowledge and recovery tools
to you life so you don't and you wont
reach for poison that keeps us sick
in our addiction.

I care. :)

That's your AV talking, Thepatman. Regroup and start again, add to your support.

You can do this!

Thepatman 03-28-2015 12:46 PM

I am sorry my friends. The pain seems to run to deep. I have tried so hard. But Announcing my fall downs are honest, yet killing me. I have tried so hard to help newcomers, I cannot do this any longer. Goodby. I will come back. Someday.

SoberLeigh 03-28-2015 12:47 PM

Oh, no you don't. You can't leave when you need us the most.

SR is a give and take scenario.

ArtFriend 03-28-2015 12:48 PM

Pat, you be da man! You know what to do... maybe add a few things to it or change something. Keep working it.

biminiblue 03-28-2015 12:49 PM

Come on, now! Don't leave this site because of a relapse. You still have much to contribute, plus cutting yourself off from us isn't the solution.

Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and throw away the booze. Ta Da.

oh - and stop beating yourself up. None of us are perfect.

aasharon90 03-28-2015 12:56 PM

SR has been a GREAT lifeline in recovery
for me and as I read others shares or post
daily, I see that this place is also a GREAT
help for them too.

Work on your recovery program for you
and share your ups and downs with us
here at and your meetings so that it can
not only help you stay on track but in doing
so is helping others when you least expect
it to.

Someone wrote on their post that they
are for TEAM SR.

I liked seeing that and do feel like we
are all members of TEAM SR. :)

Get some rest, get rid of the poison
then return with a willingness to take
suggestions to guide you along in your
desire to remain sober one day at a time.

You can do this like many have said.

TomTom75 03-28-2015 12:58 PM

come back on tomorrow

Anna 03-28-2015 01:05 PM

Pat, we are family here and we're here for you. You can pick yourself up and start again and we're here to help.

You have offered help to many members and now we're all ready to help you get through this.

RobbyRobot 03-28-2015 01:11 PM

Sorry to hear about this Patman. Don't punish yourself, okay? Leaving SR doesn't look like the best choice for you. It can be really frustrating to give and yet still have our own difficulties which somehow feel so overwhelming. I just want to say here what you already know - quitting does work. Its true enough we each are responsible to not pickup no matter what, and so when it does happen, the first place to look is at ourselves of course, but not to beat ourselves up. Stand up, quit again, and move on doing the next right thing to stay quit. Drinking isn't working, as you know.

I hope you stay and I hope you quit drinking asap. You've helped others here Patman. And I believed you have been helped as well. Don't let continued drinking destroy any of that good news.

Hulk is here. When he comes I cannot hold him. the anger the self hate, when it comes is just too much. Ok Anna. For you I will come down.

Awe patman.
What an awful disease this is my friend.
You don't deserve this.

You're posts have been a great help to me.
I hope that things get better for you.

anattaboy 03-28-2015 01:20 PM

Wow is right dude! You were there for my first post and I remember shiz like that. Get this one overwith pronto and get back.

FreeOwl 03-28-2015 01:30 PM

Where the hell do you think you're going?

Goodbye is unacceptable.

You stay right here.

Except when you're at your AA meetings.

AA is not 'an option'.... It's an obvious next step.

C'mon man. Get off the Merry-go-round to misery town and join the joyousness of sobriety.

Love Ya, buckle down.

RunnerBean 03-28-2015 01:32 PM

You are a great role model here Patman.

Please don't give up that wonderful responsibility.
