- Just wondering what everyone does when you're around people who drink and it brings up urges. I've been with family and lately they have been drinking in the evenings. Most of the time I can be around it and it doesn't bother me a whole lot. I keep...
- This post isn't so much about drinking. I'm just feeling a need to vent without judgement,which I don't think I can get from family..who I normally turn to during hard times. I've struggled with depression and addiction most of my life. Suicide...
- Just wondering if you guys do anything to celebrate when you reach the anniversary of your sobriety. Today is my two year anniversary. I'm feeling grateful to be here but it's also an emotional day for me. My uncle is the one who took me to my...
- I'm feeling broken. I feel lost and stuck and I don't know how to get out of it. How do you move on from pain and heartache in your life? The past is gone. We cannot change it. All we can do is learn from it and make today and our future better. I...
- How have you coped with mistakes you've made in the past while you were drinking? I don't know how to not feel like a piece of shit for a lot of it. I'm almost 2 years sober and still haven't figured it out. I'm always hard on myself and I know I...
- I haven't posted in a while. I don't get online much anymore. But I'm finding myself struggling so I thought I could use some venting,maybe some words of wisdom. It's kind of a bitch how the urge to drink never goes away. Yeah it gets better and...
- Today is my one year of sobriety. I've waiting a long time for this day. I remember the early days and feeling like I would never make it. But I did. It's a bittersweet day though. A year ago my uncle brought me to my first meeting. I was at my...
- I just want to say thank you to everyone in this group who has ever offered support and advice. I not only have struggled with being an alcoholic,but I have major depression and anxiety as well. I feel completely alone with my issues at home. My...
- I struggle with severe depression and anxiety. I have my whole life but I've had traumatic events happen over the last two years and it has spiked majorly. I was taking celexa and buspirone but weaned myself off of it because my husband and I have...
- Sometimes I get tired of fighting through another day. I battle so much mentally every day. I'm constantly having to tell myself I'll be fine,I'll get through this. Constantly staying busy to keep myself occupied and to keep my mind from wandering...
- It's been about 5 months since my last post. I hadn't even logged on. I've been battling so much but today I wanted to get on. I'm currently 144 days sober. I haven't been sober this long in almost 10 years and it is amazing to me that I have made...
- I'm 2 weeks sober today. Everyday I fight the urge to go buy a bottle. Some days are worse than others. The last few days it's been harder. I've been resisting. When I try talking myself into going to the liquor store I remind myself of why I'm not...
- I've been having relapse after relapse. Spent days sick and unable to do anything. I have said for so long I'm done drinking and won't do it again. But I would eventually anyway. But I finally feel like I'm ready to get past this. I finally don't...
- I just got home from my first AA meeting. I do feel better having gone. It was helpful hearing people talk about how it has turned their lives around..and just being surrounded by people who know how hard this is. It made me feel no alone,and I...
- Ive made up my mind to go to my first meeting tonight. I keep messing up. Saying I won't do this again and then end up black out drunk and throwing up the next day. I can't keep living this way. I'm disgusted with myself. I guess for now that's a...
