Had Hard Liquor the other night
I had rum the other night at a friend's house. It's no excuse but I think I'm still grieving. First Christmas since my little brother died. I'm just really disappointed in myself and I think depression has set in. I also don't think I've eaten in almost 2 days. Just can't remember. Everything is a blur.

Marissa, please get rid of all the rest of your booze and do something to help you work towards permanent sobriety! Make some phone calls, go to a meeting, keep posting here...

I'm really sorry for your loss, but the danger is we may very well lose ourselves when we turn to alcohol.
I've already given you the alcohol doesn't help us deal with anything speech. We both know that.
I think your drinking is actually about way more than this - but I think some kind of grief counselling would have to be better than rum, Marissa.
Make some healthy choices for yourself. You deserve it

I'm sorry for the loss of your brother. And, I'm sure he would want you to be sober and happy. It's important to make yourself eat something as well as being sure to get rest. I hope you feel better.

TY for all your replies. I know I need find it in myself to do better. I had to call my aunt and tell her to not come over with Christmas presents because my husband went off on me last night. She said we just need to split but I have nowhere to go. That argument was over the cat box. Stupid. I hate the cat it should be outside chasing things. And now I can't go to the family Christmas Eve because I was mad about the cat. I'm an embarrassment to him. After 25 years I know it's not ALL me! I was happy last night besides no food and the cat box. Bah humbug!

Hi Marissa,
I'm so sorry about the loss of your brother,and that you are having such a rough time right now.
You mentioned your aunt, would you be able to stay with her for a bit? Do you have other family/friends close by?

I have an autistic daughter. It's hard to change her routine even at 20. So staying with my aunt could be ok, but she has an elderly husband. They don't need us there. I don't have anyone else. So time to put my big girl panties on, right? lol
