About to loose it all!!

I don't know how my drinking is not getting caught by my loved ones, but I know I if anyone finds out I will loose this wonderful life I have (wonderful when I am sober). I can not keep doing this and I need to stop. Please pray for me that I will realize what I have before I loose it all!!!

Wolfpack, you've got the power to make this change. I don't think it is going to take us praying for you to help you realize what you have in your life... It sounds like you already know and don't want to loose it. You don't have to loose anything, but you need to take action.

Don't drink today. Be strong and don't drink today. Everyone around you will benefit from the effort you put into staying sober.

Lean on us as much as you can, we are here for you.

Yes, multiple times. That is what worries me. My drinking is getting way out of control. I can stop during the week no problem, so I know I am strong enough to stop. I just am stupid and go buy alcohol on the weekend.

I've managed to stay sober and still have to remind myself what i got all the time so i dont go doing something stupid. I guess I've managed to get out ahead of the bad stuff a little more then I used to be able too.

You can get sober, but you have to want to be sober more than you want to drink.

Hi Wolfpack, you might be surprised who actually knows. The good news is that you don't have to loose it all. Any plans to get some help? What is worse, people finding out that you want help and getting your life together or people finding out you should have gotten help and you didn't do anything about it?

Welcome to SR, Wolfpack10. You've already made a good first step by asking for help. Next step would be to not take that first drink today no matter what.

There is a ton of great support and wisdom to be found here. Wishing you the best...

Welcome back Wolfpack!!

Get a plan in place for the difficult days, Sunday is a week away, plenty of time to not let alcohol be a apart of your Sunday plans if you don't want it too!!

You can do this!!
