Back again

This may be the third time I’ve posted here with desires to quit drinking....after going back out these last 4days...I can’t sleep with all my anxiety...I honestly almost died after hitting a dumpster on the street...thank god nobody else was hurt but that car is totaled....im currently leaving my family for an in patient facility to help kick my habit of binge drinking for good....god has giving me so many chances...I feel I don’t have many left...my wife should have been left me but she’s still here...my body hurts from all the booze and from the accident...I will post more about my journey as I have to keep it going every day....as alcohol free...it’s gonna take my life if I don’t. For anyone with a similar story...please learn from my mistakes and be present in life...we only get to do this once

You’re going to be okay. It doesn’t have to be this way anymore. You can change this ... you can leave hell. You really really can. Glad you’re here

The first few days are hard - stay hydrated and try to eat something.
See a Dr if you feel really rough.

Ditto, as hard as it may be, get some food and liquids in your body. Glad to hear you are going to inpatient.

And I would venture to say - nothing matters more.

Keep on keeping on. There is a wealth of support from people who fought just as hard as you. Lean in. They are here. Believe me.
