    Seeking Salvation

    Hello everyone,

    I desperately need some help. My drinking is far too much, and far to often. Last night I drank so much I passed out. I don't remember going to bed, but it was late. I woke up this morning shaking, I threw up and I have the worst headache in my life.

    I'm going through some terrible personal problems and the drinking is making it all worse. I'm so ashamed of myself.

    I am hoping that by coming here I can get the help I need.

    Thank you all for listening.

    Hi Soul,

    I'm sorry to hear that you feel desperate, but you came to a great place. Most of us have been there, done that. If you have a couple minutes, feel free to read our posts~ you'll find people that are as desperate as you, and others that were desperate, but have found their way "OUT"... you can, too.

    Come back, Soul. We don't bite! :l

          Paula.... in the UK, when two people say the same thing at the same time, do you yell "JINX!"?
          The jinx'ed person can't talk until someone else says their name.

          Well, JINX! :H

          P.S.... okay, PAULA. :H

                    Damaged Soul...
                    I was praying for you and I opened my Bible... and as I started to flip to a verse that I wanted to share with you, my eyes were drawn to a verse that I believe God wanted me to share with you...

                    "I have loved you with an everlasting love; I will build you up again and you will be rebuilt.... Again you will take up your dance and be joyful."

                    God does not create Damaged Souls...

                    Right now, you need to recover safely from drinking. You may need to go to the ER if you start feeling too ill. Don't be ashamed to tell them you drank to much. Drink fluids. Have some juice to keep your sugar up. They will simply put you on an IV or give you something to settle your stomach and to calm the acids. Someone said Cranberry juice is also good for your liver. Don't be afraid, we're here for you. We've been where you are at. Some of us still are...
                    Read all of what RJ writes.

                    Stay in touch...

                    You're in my prayers... God has you in the Palm of His Hand.

                            Welcome DS

                            You certainly will find help and understanding here. At one point in my life I spent more time hanging over the toilet bowl than I did walking around. Oh my goodness, I spent a long time doing that. But those days are over. They have been for several years. There is hope for all - including you.

                            Stick here with us for a while at least to get to know us. We will do everything we can to help you. Just read around the site - there is tons of information here. Post as often as you like. Download RJ's book if you want to know more. There is tons of information there on nutritional supplements, etc.

                            Just get to know us. We've all been there and all want to help.
                            Rest in Peace, Bear. We miss you.
