Unhappy Im Back And Looking For More Help...

Well the weekend went ok, it spit ice rain on us the whole time we up there. I tried to help my wife have a good b-day but the only way was if I stayed drinking, If I didnt I would have spent the whole time in bed or worse. We went out had a good time the colts won the only prob is when we got home for the first time I have had a hard time stopping drinking. I know I have a prob know I can admit that, Im just scared to stop, usually I can quit I just take my xanax and pass out for a couple days drink lots of fluids and it passes but this time is diffrent. Last night was awful, I would wake up with thoughts I was dieing, sit straight up in bed, cold sweats you name it I had it, I just had to get some beer today try to get through it, this time Im not sure I can get through it on my own, Im going to drink some beer tonight and first thing tomorrow Im going to call for help.....

((((Searching))))))))



I know the feelings that you are having. I am the drunk in my family and I am the wife. My husband knows about my problem and hates it. Everday I get up and say "THIS will be the day". But then, the shakes give in and I pick up the beer again. I am currently into one week of meetings, temporary sponsors and a counselor. We are trying to get me into detox. The only thing is, I have no insurance for the first time in 20 years and that makes it very hard without a LOT of cash. BUT, if you do have insurance, please make that call tomorrow. I am currently trying to deal with this myself and taper down. I am scared SHITLE$$ of withdrawals, but it is all I can do for the moment.


Please hang in there and get the help you need. And keep coming back to SR. It is a GREAT place.

Take care of yourself.

We LOVE you

Ang

We're here for you. If you are having trouble, and you can physically do it, you can come here and post away. Sometimes it helps to get the sh!t out of your head.

I'll say and extra prayer for you....
