Day 12

Oh well, here it is Day 12...that is until about 2 hours ago. Now I have about 4 beers in me. I feel like I'm going crazy. I guess noone really wants to talk to anyone who is under the influence of alcohol. Believe me, I know that I am in the devil's hands now. This just can't be the beginning of another binge. My 14 year old's court date is Wed. for 2 having pot and gang related activity on himself at school. My husband has been having an affair since May. I feel like I'll be the bag lady before long and my sweet son will be in the hands on whomever DFCS feels is better parents for him. My husband has a gun in there. I'm just afraid that I'll aim at the wrong place and be disfigured and still have to put up with this b...s... life. How can there be a God? Wah, wah, wah

Hi. I'm somewhat new to recovery. I see that you're going through a lot right now, but does drinking really help anything? I just went through my own son's first court encounter, so I understand how you must be feeling. As for your husband's affair, well, if you know about it and don't get proactive about it there isn't much I can say. But these things are beyond your control. Start by taking control of what you can, don't pick up. I know it is easier said than done, but anything worthwhile is difficult and time consuming. And especially don't mix guns & alcohol. Don't even joke about shit like that. I'm here for a while if you want to talk.

12 day's arent anything you have to give it a chance,alcohol clouds the mind for days, and you can suffer depression from it for months as well. Just keep going 1 day at a time, and you will be alot better, You're outlook on life will change.

Sorry to hear that you have slipped at 12 days, well done for getting that far, and well done for sharing here.

Sounds as though you have got heaps to deal with, and the booze is only going to make it worse, get over tonight get back on track for your sake.

good Luck

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
