Less than 2 week from 1 year and go on a binge

I can't believe I mess it up just less than 2 weeks. Last weekend I went out with friends. Normal weekend and decide I can handle a few drinks and one thing after another, I wake up 5 days later not know much what happen. Miss a week of work and asking myself, why the hell I want to start drinking again when I was doing good.

I start drinking Thursday night and talk to my boss Friday, knowing I was on a binge because it happen before but I year ago. I still feel like crappy but more of the line of what will happen when I come in first thing tomorrow morning.

I'm on day 3 of being sober.

Hi ACT10Npack!

Three days sober is AWESOME! SoberRecovery is here any time you need reasons not to drink, and I find it helpful to read and post here for maintaining my sobriety.

I'm sorry you drank ACT10N but it's good you're back.

Do you think you finally know enough now to shoot down that voice is when it says you'll be ok with one or two?

I thought I did. I'm just waiting on tomorrow to see what happens. I think they will have an intervention with me.

I'm glad you are back. I hope things go okay at work tomorrow. You had 50 weeks sober, that is a huge accomplishment, what helped to keep you sober during that time? Is there anything you can add to help you stay sober again?

I am a little over four months sober, after many Day ones, and I know that one or two drinks will not work for me either (I've learned this the hard way of course!)

Good luck tomorrow.

❤️ Delilah

Regardless of what happens with work I think accepting what you are is more important.

Many times you've done ok for a while and then drank again in social situations.

Maybe some lifestyle changes are in order, or at least a better plan for dealing with things soberly?

Well, if that is the case at least you have people that care enough about you to want to see you do well. Not everyone has that, so try to embrace it if it does come to that.
