    Hi, i am Lil.
    I have quit drinking a couple times and even once for just over a year.
    Again I have gone back to the beer. I feel like I will never be well at times and am going through depression and anxiety... which is compounded with not eating.
    I just don't know what to do anymore and have thought about going in to the detox center again but feel too ashamed for the nurses and other staff see me go back for the 3rd time.
    I just want to feel good about me and well again.

    Lil One, first off, WELCOME!! :welcome:

    Since you have managed to set the booze aside before, you know you can do it again.

    If you think you would benefit from a medical detox, I URGE you to please set aside your pride and GO TO THE HOSPITAL. Withdrawal from alcohol is more dangerous than withdrawal from heroin. Lot's of people don't realize that - I know I didn't. The medical professionals are there to help - don't be afraid to utilize those services!

    Hope to get to know you better. This is a GREAT place for support!

      My Husband is away for the weekend so I have to stay here with the animals until he is back and if I can't seem to be strong enough to empty out the fridge and get myself sober without health issues then yes I think I will have to just hold my head up and take the dreaded walk back.
      Thank you so much for your reply.

          Hi Lil and welcome!

          Try not to fret about the long term and just focus on getting through each hour. Dont set your goals too high or you will disapoint yourself. Be kind to yourself and take care of you. xxoo
