When things go wrong!

[dizilizid]

What happens when things get out of hand. Emotions run high; they seem hard to handle without AL. What happens when something pisses you off? It's hard to not grab that drink. Everythin seems so strange and hard. I feel if i think too far ahead, i start drivin myself crazy. The thought of never ever drinkin again drives me completely nuts. I just can't seem to cope with that thought. So one day at a time, one minute at a time kinda makes sense, but in that moment of weakness, the addict mind takes the reigns and you don't think too clearly. I know i can't drink. I know if i have one, i won't stop. It's a thin line. Just need some motivation right now.

i cant look at the big 'forever' picture. i am just not going to drink today. someone here suggested to me, when you're having that moment, something bad has happened, how do you cope etc. fast forward 24/48 hours and see the situation from there, what would happen sober, what would happen if you had a drink. i find it really helpful, the sober picture is always a better outcome.

I have two thoughts when things don't go the way they are expected to;

1. Remember things always work out in the end, and will do only if I stay AF.
2. If I have a drink I'll go right back into the impossible nightmare that was a continuous problem.

That's about it really.

Hi dizilizid,
my emotions still runs high it just happens out of the blue have to hide myself because, i still crying. I know what it is deep down i really want a drink but i go along with the flow and it does pass. Yes and when i feel like im going crazy it like my head is like a washing machine or i feel like a headless chicken not sure if im coming or going it worse if your shopping because i cant think straight. I use to look ahead and to far a head dont do that no more, it is strange and hard but it so worth it beleive me.
