u dont like how u feel afterwards and how u acted isnt that bottom enough to quit

you hit bottom when you stop digging

I personally agree with Mikey62 Reply #17.
Everyone's bottom is unique to them - the point where you bounce back is the bottom.
Someone here said you've hit your bottom when you feel you must 'get rid' of alcohol rather than 'give it up' - a difference of attitude towards the damn stuff.

I thought I had hit bottom when I entered into the program. What I had hit was a physical bottom- ilost all my possessions, inlcuding my home, job, $ firends and family. On top ofthat, my health was bad enough that if I did not stop, I may not live. What I did not hit was an emotional bottom, the one which really brought me into this program, desparate, feeling true demoralization. After my relapse, I had lost nothing tangible or physical. I had lost any true sense of me. I relate my emotional bottom to something I read in a book:
"You do too much and you feel filthied. Dirty. Rotten from the inside out. Never clean enough. Never free. No matter what lengths you go to. There is no safe distance once you've been infected. Sick to death of what passes for life."
I had been infected and there was no safe distance far enough from mind altering substance. this was my bottom, and I do not try to compare it to others, just try and share and relate.
As Mickey62 said, your bottom is when you stop digging. True, and only you can stop the digging. Hopefully I have.

I think bottom is a matter of perspective. When one becomes clean and sober for a long period of time I assume you would look back and see the hey days of your drinking as the bottom.

If you wait to see what your rock bottom is, it may be to late. The bottom could result in death or even accidental death. I would'nt want to live with the fact that I killed someone driving drunk. Maybe your higher power is telling you something. I never hit rock bottom but I quit just because of the shame and guilt i have when I wake up the next morning not remembering what the heck i did or said to someone. I look at it as luck on my side that I didn't hit bottom. Now I won't have to worry as long as I stay sober. Good Luck, There are so many of us.

you know, its funny this poped back up bacause right now I do feel like i am at my bottom, I've been looking at my life more and more.....I really dont have a life, i have NOTHING, I do have family that loves me and I am SOOO thankful, but other than that I have no life of my own....

So, what happen was Friday i got drunk with a friend, at home....he left at around 2am.....i THINK i went to bed....next day my car is missing....my sister comes over and says it not in the lot were i park...I think oh shit it got towed away....i knew i parked it there befor i started drinking....well i called every tow lot in my town....NO one has it.....so i had to be stolen....right? Or did I drive in a black out.....I still dont know but I am almost positive I just went to bed after my friend left....how sad is this that I dont even KNOW....my sister laughed with me but she knows too....am an alcoholic....I reported it stolen but still cant be 100 pecent sure......

I feel so awful right now.....I am sober right now and i keep praying this might just be the wake up call i need.....I cryed for the first time in a long time.....im scared....I hate my life and want to get better....

And the winner is Ashley ! you have just answered your own question. Unless you want things to get worse {and they will } listen to your heart and make the decision ! That is the meaning to the phrase TO THINE OWN SELF BE TRUE ! You'll never need to drink again if you don't want too.
