Sending you good wishes and hope Forte--get to the Salvo rehab
and get your life back.

You can do it--you are worth it :grouphug:

Actually...

It CAN get worse. It can get a lot worse.

So - let's not allow it too!!!!

What will you do, TODAY, in support of a clean and sober life?

Forte, I'm so glad you are posting here; it means you want help.

I'm worried about you waiting until tomorrow to reach out in real life, though. Can you find it in yourself to ask for that help today? Can you go to a different hospital/ER? Will your parents help you to sort things out? I'm not sure how far things have gone with them, but I'd like to think if my kid called me in your situation and said, "You're right, I need help and I need it now - can you help me?" that I'd rise to the occasion.

If your parents can't be there to help you get somewhere safe today, can you call AA?

Really rooting for you Forte. Hope you get to rehab and can begin the healing process.

I'm off to detox in about 3 hours. No last drink, no last horah. I'm just done. I don't think my body could take anymore.
I feel like hell and my thoughts are black.

If anyone I struggling in their sobriety right now and thinking that a drink or drug sounds tempting, PLEASE learn from my actions.
This relapse has cost me my Partner, my job, my home and nearly my life. All in a few weeks.

Stay sober. It's so much better on the other side.

Peace and love to everyone on here.

You're not bumming us out at all...we've all had our lows, be it financial, relationships, medical issues, legal troubles. Just resolve to make the next right decision (even if it's just getting a good night's sleep), then tomorrow you make the next right decision at that time (perhaps getting something to eat, then perhaps spending more time here on SR, etc)... After a while these good decisions start to add up and you will feel better and start building a mental record of positivity, small step by small step. Oh and having a drink at any time is never the right decision. I made that mistake more than a few times, even after almost a year of sobriety! Hang in there; we're all here for you! :)

Best wishes forte.

Also, if you are in the US you should check out the department of social services in your state. They have many programs to help you try and get back on your feet.

We're pulling for you, Forte! There's hope once you take those first steps.
