"I don't want to die so will do everything necessary."

You have got to be quickly coming to the point where constant withdrawal is completely unbearable. Surely the gift of desperation is imminent. I truly hope "as desperate as the *dying can be" is beginning to become your truth because the very solid, proven point is that you, and anyone who drinks like us, will die.
It is a terrible shame as we can recover when we do everything and anything neccessary to live. Starts with putting down the drink. That simple. Not easy, but simple.
For what feels like the hundreth time, Sweetie, you can do it. Furthermore you are worth it.

Sweeti,

Are you sober today? Any progress with meetings?

I'm glad you're still around here, Sweeti! Why not try posting here everyday--maybe find some friends to PM every day here, too? Get into the habit of connecting with people. Then if you start feeling the urge to drink, it'll be easier to reach out. One thing I've heard that has helped some people is to post (or PM) that you want to drink. Then wait for five replies. Respond to them. Sometimes that'll help distract you long enough to regain control, remind you why you want to stay sober, and ride out the desire. Just a thought.

I really, really struggled, too, so I identify a lot with your challenges. I'm pulling for you. Take it easy today. Keep on the sober path.

Glad to see you back Sweeti--I agree with the others, you can do it.

Posting everyday will help--
