Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.

This may be a common AA saying and if so I apologize for saying something everyone already knows. A fellow at a meeting the other night told me it stands for "Son of a bitch everything's real." I've been sober for 18 days now and I have discovered that alcohol and xanax were probably my only real coping mechanisms. I feel crippled by the stress of every day life and have been very depressed. I'm going to stay home from work again today and try to arrange to have some other people assume part of my workload - at least one piece that's really been nagging at me as the deadline is approaching. I know once I start working the steps things will improve. My sponsor was sick on Sunday so I didn't get to see her and get my next assignment. I need to call her today and see how she's feeling.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
(And i am NOT saying that depression/anxiety is something every one of can control, so please do not start jumping down my ass here anyone.)
When my sponsor is unavailable, i call another sick puke until i get soem relief.. And for me relief is not always somebody patting me on the head and saying " just go to a meeting and everything will be
ok".
It won't!
"It's not the meeting we make, it's the steps we take" that gets us to a recovered state of mind.
God Bless
