Another Try

Trying to see if I can do this again. Went into a slow type of relapse a year ago and now it's completely out of hand. I wouldn't want to be with a person like me right now. My intake is scary and I know I need to stop. It's every day, every single day I drink and get drunk. I am still employed thankfully so the week days are better than the weekends but on the weekends I could sometimes lose days.
I've been sober for today so far and I don't plan on drinking which I know I have had a problem sticking to that plan before. I guess the important thing is I realize that there is a big issue here and I need to put all my energy towards staying sober.

I hope you can find a way or plan to stay sober because the other life is painful as you know.

Welcome. I see you've had some success with AA. Perhaps re immersion with the program and the steps will be of help.

I'm glad you're back and ready to re-commit to sobriety. Is there something you can add to your plan that will help support your recovery.
