No Pitty Party for Me- I get what I deserve

[dlw]

I have so many good days, and am so Proud, then I fall off the wagon and blow it, only to suffer with the worst hangover the day after.
. My husband offers no support, he drinks moderately, therefore I get what I deserve. Not asking for pitty, just support from my MWO friends. Sorry all, I blew it
Can you give me a bit of encouragement friends, I can use a hand

DLW - looks like you've been here a while so you know how great the website is. I think it's like giving up smoking - the more you try the better your odds get for succeeding. I tried multiple times and finally something kicked in for me. Hoping it sticks. I just about live on this website for now - helps me so much. Maybe you could visit more often!!

dlw, I am sorry your husband isn't being supportive of you. You have done so very well and should be very proud of yourself.

Find the strength within you and get back on the wagon. Hangovers are awesome reminders as to why drinking isn't all it's cracked up to be, eh?

My advise is to eat lots of good food today. Remind yourself why you want the AF life and don't let your slip deter you of your long term goals.

Hang in there!

dlw, I'm sorry. It's such a familiar sorry. We all start to feel comfortable, we're ready to move away for MWO, we've got it licked. We get cocky. Then WHAM!!
I wish you had support at home, but what the hell, do this for you. Quit blaming yourself. You have an AL problem, and we're going to help you with it. So pull up them britches and boots, and lets buckle down! :huggy

Hi dlw - Please don't beat yourself up. Your story is not unlike many others here. We get some AF time under our belts, become overconfident and complacent and WHAM. I know I've been there many times in the past.

What has helped me is finally coming to the realization that I cannot drink AL so therefore I have to be AF and I want to be AF for ME - not anyone else. And, I come to this wonderful MWO community every day to find the support and encouragement I need to help me with this journey.

I wish you the very best... Be strong and kknow that we are all here for you!

Hi dlw, how are you going, good on you for making this day 1, hope you are having a good day, let us know, how your doing!!!!! lilly x:l

Hey DLW,

Good luck for Day 1 and good on you for picking yourself back up. I hardly know anyone with drinking problems who has quit first time. If we did do that we would have to have either almost more determination than the human soul can bear, all the answers or not have an addiction in the first place.

I have lost faith in myself over the past few years, as I did get sober then relapsed and have been lapsing more and more frequently since then, never able to get as much sober time under my belt as I did before. It is hard not to beat yourself up in that situation. But I have asked for more help and medical support and kept plugging away at it and after almost a year of continuing to fall short of a continuous month sober, I am nearly there. I had lost so much faith that I had begun to think that would never happen. It is a small step in my recovery journey, but one that I thought was unattainable ever again.

So keep plugging away, learn from mistakes and successes alike, and you will get there in the end if you want it badly enough and find the tools that work for you.
Best wishes,
K x
