Check out and maybe join the Class of September support thread.
SR is not just for people who've gotten sober - it's for people who are trying to be, SilentSearch.
why deny yourself support in the weeks when you most need it?

Dee, you're right. I could use help over coming days. I'm alone and scared. Even friendly words from strangers online. What a stupid, stupid, stupid place to be in. I could have made such different choices.

Thank you. Fearing upcoming weeks may be kind of awful. It's a lot about being alone with things. (Well, as well as simple survival! Related to the former.) I never figured out how to reach out and create connections and support.
And the drinking both creates temporary numbness around that and deep, deep shame and worthlessness and private mess in practical ways about it.
