Yeah I've been reading here a bit
I'm on day 3 and I feel rough, just shattered, and not really feeling very good about things at all
I had a ton of anxiety at work today, just froze up a few times and went quiet
Just hope no one notices
I actually feel wrecked, my head is banging and I'm really tired and don't feel much like doing anything at all
Not much of an enthusiastic update but that's where I'm at I guess

That is a tough one! It has to be done though..You should face 'them' and be ready to accept whatever the outcome is. I've been writing out checks(upwards of $20k!) to friends/family today and am literally sick to my stomach! But, it's what I must face to move past it. I'm shocked at how many people I've let down and would love to be drunk doing this but, that's not an option for me. I hope you find what woks for you,brother!
Acknowledge and make amends where,possible.
Try to remember that each sober day lived with self-respect soon becomes a day in your past of which you can be proud. You are creating non-only a respectable future but a respectable past.
I am proud of you, Stewy.

What a brilliant way to look at it Soberleigh. I'm going to remember that.

The best way to face the damage done is to stop drinking. And that is really the toughest part - facing our addiction. And accepting unconditionally that drinking even one sip of alcohol is not an option - period. We cannot undo the damage as it's already been done - but we can prove to others that we are serious about our sobriety now.
stewy, im glad ya decided to get some courage and post- good on ya!!
as scott mentioned, it seems youve said youve reached that breaking point where drinking isnt an option quite a few times,eh? maybe not in the same words, but it seems youve typed that a time or 9 in the last few months.
soooo, IF you want to get AND stay sober, clear away the wreckage, AND start loving yourself, its prolly time to stop going around the same old mountain,eh?
i assume yer gonna say rehabs still not an option?

Look Stewy, I did the same thing you are doing at your age. Looking for attention and sympathy. All it did was justify my addiction. The only thing that that led to was less attention and sympathy and a deeper and lonely spiral into addiction. I just hope you will find a way to get attention in a better way than drinking yourself to death. John
