Oh Bri :l
I'm so sorry you're going through this! Yes, I would say this is the turning point for you. Our dear friend Nelz woke up one day in the hospital, and has been sober ever since. I hope you take this seriously and know that alcohol CAN kill you. We don't want to lose you, we love you! Please, please take care of yourself!
Love,

Good Morning Bri, :l I am so sorry you have to endure this but I think this is the light at the end of your tunnel.
When you feel up to it why don't you read back through some of your posts.
Remember that this is YOUR journey and sometimes we need to be reminded where we were so we can get to where we want to be...

Trite but true, :l

Love you, honey :h

Yes Ma'am, vowed to never go back, Bri, you can do the same. Harness that feeling you have/had while in the hospital. Use it when urges hit, it can be very powerful.

Get better my friend, stay strong

hi bri, consider yourself lucky. this is your wake up call...I hit my bottom in an emergency room, when I had to tell my family and the dr and nurses that I was actually going through withdrawals and not just sick...sometimes it takes a slap on the face (figuratively, of course) to wake us alcoholics up. this is a serious issue with deadly consequences, and we are all here to support you through it! we know how you feel, hon.

peace

Thanks everyone for the comforting and encouraging words.
Despite being at the hospital, the doctor had told me my bloodwork came back fine and so did the ultrasound despite a slightly enlarged liver (alcohol consumption) and told me to "cut down". I know what the ultimate answer to my problem is, and that is to QUIT.
It isn't helping my relationships...with my family, boyfriend, my puppy or with myself.
It isn't helping me financially.
It isn't helping me with studying because I am perpetually drunk and can't concentrate and it isn't helping with work as I am always so sluggish and dopey after a night of drinking.
All these bad things happening and yet sometimes we still can't put that damn bottle down.
I am going to work on myself this week. Wish me luck. It is going to be hard. Weekends are always the hardest. But other then that, I am doing fine and am glad you were and are all there for me. xo

Bri.

Bri -
I am glad you are doing physically better. I know weekends are hard, but really they're just like any other day, except you have lots of time to ENJOY...not recover from a hangover.
It's good to hear that you are going to work on yourself this week, you really should take GOOD care of yourself, mentally and physically. Please keep us updated on how you are doing!
Love,
K9

Working from home, I find weekends easier. I can leave the house and go somewhere whenever I need to. I'm chained to the house during the week.

Good luck, Bri. You can totally rock sober. Healthy is soooo much better than sick.
