On day 1
 
feel awful so just resting sipping water

Sending you healing thoughts....

Have you been thinking of how you might be able to stop the insanity of drinking?

:grouphug:

I hope you feel better soon. Small sips of water and rest today will help. Maybe some broth or light soup if you’re able to eat. I’m sure you feel bad enough to realize a major shift needs to happen. Recovery plan ideas?

Mummyto2 09-05-2019 06:18 AM

I haven’t a clue to be honest, just concentrating on getting through today

DreamCatcher17 09-05-2019 06:19 AM

Awe, Mummy. I am sad for you. I know how badly you want to be sober as I have followed your journey.
You CAN make it through today :)

Hope you feel better.


If you cannot stop on your own have you considered rehab?

I know that might sound scary but you’ve been relapsing and seem caught in a cycle.

You and your family are worth any investment to heal and become whole.

One is definitely too many, Mummy.

Glad you made it back.

Mummyto2 09-05-2019 07:29 AM

Thanks I just had a shower and cleaned up the house before the kids get home from school, this has to be it now I can’t keep going around in circles it’s exhausting

I'm glad you made it back this time, Mummy.

Good to see that “today” has finally come. But saying, “this has to be it” probably won’t be enough. You’ve tried the pure willpower method before. Probably going to need some help. AA, treatment, medicine, etc. I’d recommend making a plan for how you’ll try differently this time.

I came off social media because sometimes that can trigger me

Thank you

Getting off social media sounds like a good idea, Mummy.

Mummyto2 09-05-2019 10:05 AM

Yes I definitely think it’s one of my triggers

Do what you have to do. But your struggles to remain sober are more extensive than what just quitting social media can address. I hope you in your desperation you find the impetus to take on significant means of recovery.

Frankly, when I was drinking or trying to stop I don't remember anything that didn't "trigger" me.

Tinkerbeau 09-05-2019 12:09 PM

Hope your feeling better, i know only too much how exchausting and soul destroying the cycle is, I'm on day 5 again but I'm trying and determined to beat it and you are too, this could be your last day 1
