Thanks everyone. Really feeling at a low today. Feeling a fool for keep repeating the same actions again and again.

Thanks Dee and RAL. It's amazing just how stubborn I've been. This has got to be it.

Me too Bob. Im just going round and round in this never ending painful cycle of drinking, then saying it's day 1 managing a few days sober if at all then drinking again. and repeat.

Ughhh headache

Good morning all. I've been waking up clear-headed for the past 4 days and loving it but for some reason this morning I have quite a pounder. I'm going to say it is just due to all the time I have been spending outdoors lately.

Going to pop an allergy tab and a couple of Tylenol and get some coffee and get moving. Hopefully it will subside.

Wishing everyone a great Sunday!
D.

Feel the same zombie. I’ve done more now by 1pm today than I would have been the entire Sunday before!

RAL, let's make this permanent sober this time. I know it's easy to say on day 1, but I'm pretty sure that I have now faced all challenges, succeeding & failing, but my stubborness is finally ready to give up and just admit that the rest of my life needs to be sober. Something else I have finally realized. I have way more stress when I'm drinking as opposed to not drinking.

I know the first part is scary dear RAL.

Like Dee, I thought I was going crazy in the first month. Lots of emotion, and the withdrawal can be very hard. I needed help. Otherwise I would not have been able to get through those nights either....I used a free phone counselling service that is 24/7. Just someone to talk to....sometimes that helps so much.

It is hard to get off this crazy ride....even though every part of you....of all of us wants to, the beginning can be well, really hard. And we fall down. Just keep getting back up, no matter what.

And remember that you are the hero in your own life....every single person here.....look what you are doing for yourselves!

Onward together.

Same, RAL. I've been struggling as well. Having trouble re-training my brain to come here instead of drinking. I'm not the greatest at asking for help, thinking things thru rationally, impulse control in general I guess. There has to be a change.
