    Need to save my family from me

    Fairyfeet - So sorry to hear about your Nan. I've lost my mom and all of my grandparents. I can relate.

    You don't have to be someone else to make other people happy. Maybe they are just concerned about you and would like to see you cut back on drinking.

    Do you want to cut back on alcohol?

    Love, Me

        How long ago did this happen?

        Do you believe in yourself, FF? Cause no one is going to believe in you until you believe in yourself. You sound like a loving and caring person with a lot to offer the world, hun.

              Sorry you are so sad fairyfeet. Try to stay here and read - it will help pass the time when you are trying not to drink. Lots of inspiration and many people who have shared your same story.

                  Hi Fairy,

                  :welcome:

                  I agree with Bandit that AL and depression go hand in hand. We numb ourselves because it hurts so much, or we can't handle the present. But the next day it's back - but this time it's worse because guilt and shame raise their ugly heads. The cycle just continues & gets worse. I have been there and I think nearly everyone here has too - this is why we are here!!!

                  I lost a baby 9 years ago & lost the plot totally!!!!! Grief hits everyone differently. Some need to talk - if that's you and you feel no family / friends will listen - then sweetie, just post away. Someone is always listening here!! No judging!!

                  I've never been on a forum before and I am just so grateful that my 'baptism' was into such a loving and understanding community. We will help as much as we can!!! :h

                  Take care & talk lots

                    Need to save my family from me

                    Thank You

                    Thank You everyone, as you probably guessed I had been drinking last night
                    I have paid for the book and kudzu root and am eagerly awaiting for them to come I am going to get some kalm today as I found if I took them I could cut down on my drinking
                    I am feeling very sorry for myself lately and not very strong, but I know I have to stop drinking before I completely loose the plot and do something silly
                    I am sober now and have to host a big party all day tomorrow for my husbands family so have to go and get the house looking like a home its pretty much a tip at the moment
                    I have 5 children and run a business from home and pretty much look after one of my Grandsons most days
                    He goes home at night but wants to come and live with me all 2 years of him!
                    I am constantly under pressure and most days feel like running away there dont seem to be days any more that are good
                    I am sooooo grateful to find this forum and when I start this programme I am determined to give it my best shot I have been drinking for about 20 years and have cut down occasoinally, then the pressure gets on top of me and I start again I want to stop and not feel depressed all the time
                    Thank you for all your replies I am very gratefull to have someone to talk to

                      Welcome..my drinking to excess started when my Grandma died. She was the one person in my life who accepted me no matter what. I'm so glad you found this site. I have learned so much here. Take care of yourself.

                        Fairyfeet,

                        Don't give up on yourself!:h Just think, your journey has just begun, and you will grow and learn so much about yourself. We all are here for you - here to listen, here to hug and give support... Just keep posting... For me, posting has been a measure of healing in itself.
                        I encourage you to read some of the other threads when you find time. You'll find some kindred spirits, and will realize that you are not alone in this journey. :groupluv:
                        Nobody trips over mountains. It is the small pebble that causes you to stumble. Pass all the pebbles in your path and you will find you have crossed the mountain.

                          Ohhh fairyfeet... I just found your thread. One thing we all have in common is the pain of the next morning...

                          There is light at the end of the tunnel... I'm so glad you got through last night and have a plan.. and ordered the book and some supps..

                          :hug:
                          P.S. You can't love if you don't love yourself... :heart:

                                You have a lot of friends here who you just haven't met. You can say anything you like, without having to look at anyone. Let us help you.
                                My life is better without alcohol, since 9/1/12. My sobriety tool is the list at permalink 236 on the toolbox thread under monthly abstinance.
