Ugh…I feel like shit this morning. I drank myself another bottle of rum last night. Drunk texted people, made a mess of whatever I had socially. Physically drained. Emotionally sad. God, I HAVE to stop drinking alcohol. Just…nothing good comes from it.

Hey,
yeah, I am in the same kind of situation as you, alcohol definitely ruins one life. Also physically, rots the brain, destroy your sleep, makes you depressed… liver takes a huge hit, and rest of the body too. My dad died from it. My mom didn’t but, I wonder how. Even if you know it’s bad, one keep doing it until it gets even worse I guess. I drove drunk number of times, not proud of it at all, and I’m really glad I didn’t injure or kill anybody. I know it’s wrong but, once drunk, it really does remove a lot of barriers.
It’s sort of the worse legal drug in existence I guess. I wish my parents never dumped that shit onto me.
Be strong, try to reduce the consumption at least, buy smaller formats. We have a law here that you can’t buy alcohol after 11pm, I use it to control myself. Choose the amount when sober, then the 11pm limit prevents me from buying more once I’m drunk.
plenty of rehab, alcoholic anonymous, and all available to help.
be well
We’re on opposite sides of the same problem. I’ve been sober a few years but lately the pain of life is so bad I’m thinking of crawling back to the bottle. Nothing good comes from it, I totally agree. But what else can we do when life twists the knives?
Dont go back to the bottle. There are lower levels in hell.
just heard about kava extract, seems to be sort of a replacement for alcohol. At least, it seems to help with anxiety. Gonna try it soon, not sure if it’s a magic solution but, I’m trying..
