- I have been avoiding writing this because I know how emotional this will be. 6 years ago, I was happy, I had an awesome career, a wife, friends, and a normal life. I am an alcoholic and I had 7 years sober at that time as well. One morning I woke up...
- Had a serious craving about the normal time 3:00 pm, white knuckled it through about an hour, but pulled it off! My attitude is most of the problem! I'm depressed and angry because of chronic pain and alcohol makes it worse....Why is alcohol my go...
- I screwed up again! I'm embarrassed and didn't even want to post this...But this is my honesty system that helps keep me in check. Pain and depression are playing a role in this. Not making excuses, just stating a fact. I have been disabled for 6...
- I am 45, I have been disabled for the last 6 years. I have "Intestinal Mal-rotation Presenting in Adult Life". This disorder is caught in babies at a rate of about 1 in 500 births. To live to adult life being undiscovered is .002% of the...
- Back on the wagon since my Jan. Relapse. Not so bad this time after a dose of humiliation! For those of you like me, keep getting back on the wagon, eventually we will succeed! First and foremost, keep the plug in the jug! Sometimes it's a bitch to...
- It's not hard for me to stay on the wagon for 2 weeks or even 2 years, my longest was 8 years. I have a ton of will power, but yet sometimes the little devil on my shoulder talks me into 1 beer or 1 drink.....and the binge is on! If anyone knows how...
- I feel so much better! I felt like shit for 21 days after 8 months of sobriety. Like I've said I had 7 years and 10 months, then the last 7 shaky, a month, a year, 2 years, I have been sober about 10 out of the last 14 years. I feel like I'm back on...
- Back on the wagon 3 days after a 21 day tumble from it. I have been sober 10 out of the last 14 years, I did good up until 7 years. The last 7 years have been a little shaky, a few months to a few years of on and off sobriety. I'm just glad I got...
- What do you think of my new avatar? A little better than the sand bucket if you ask me. Sly
- Nothing like a good dose of humility to get things started! Lmao!
- I was sober since June of 2014 until Dec. 29th of 2014. At one point I had 8 years and I have not been able to halt it. The cravings were really extreme for the last 3 months. I caved in and started drinking again. Yes, looking back, I more than...
- I haven't been here for awhile. Just checking in. Today is 4 months using Rational Recovery, very close to SMART recovery. I have 10 years of recovery until I relapsed, using the same method. So those looking for alternatives to AA, SMART is a good...
- In less than 10 minutes, I will have 30.days of sobriety behind me after a relapse! I can honestly say I'm in it for the long haul now! I have never been able to wrap my mind around 1 day at a time, for me it' all or nothing. I prefer to count in...
- I guess this is as hard as you want to make it. It's not very difficult for me when faced with the alteratives. Jail, institutions or death! My problem is not screwing it up when something goes terribly awry! But, I learn a little more every time...
- I have quit drinking and smoking pot, i'm on day 14 of being clean and sober! The depression and lack of interest in things I used to enjoy is lifting. I am actually getting back in my element. I started taking Sam- e and it has helped me more than...
