Tough day. A friend of mine passed away today of a massive heart attack. It was immediate and his wife tried to revive him. He left behind a young child and teen..as well as his poor wife. My heart is broken for this family. I want a drink of wine.. but I am staying strong in my weakness. Rough rough day.

Justyo,
My heart is with you, sweetie.:h
Everyone here tells me that drinking won't erase anything ....at least not in the long run. I hate hearing that at times especially since its so blasted true....
Hugs and condolences to you and your friends:lOn My Own Way Out Since May 20, 2012

THANK YOU
Thank you. Somehow my brain is telling me that a drink will make it feel all better. Its a lie from the pit of hell but none the less... being numb is appealing right now. I stand firm on my commitment. Pain will not lead me back to merlot:rangerComment

Grieving and recovery are two very exhausting processes. So when we combine them, it can take a toll. But your recovery will help you to grieve properly and keep your self esteem and health intact. I'm so sorry for your loss.
I light candles every night for my brother, and I make tea with his tea pot. It helps.Day 1 again 11/5/19

Thinking of you in your grief, Justyo. You will be proud of yourself when you look back on this sad time.Tipplerette
I do this for my children, my grandchildren, my health, my peace of mind, and mostly for the opportunity to learn to live with my true, unfiltered, clear-headed, vulnerable self.

So sorry for your loss.The mind will intellectualize it, the heart will emotionalize it, yet the gut never lies.

Hi Justyo
So sorry to hear that. I am inspired by your resolve that grief will not lead you back to Merlot.
Sudden death is so hard to comprehend. Thank you for being hereComment
