Starting ab again

[hadit]

Hello everyone, I have decided to see my dr today to start ab again. My drinking is way out of control again. I am so worried that I could lose my marriage and even my life if I continue down this slippery slope. Last night I got plasdered again the 3 rd time for the week. I am feeling very depressed and even have had suicidal thought. I just have to beat this monster. I plan this quit to go to aa take ab and get some counselling. thanks for listening. I will check in again later:upset::upset:

Oh Had so sorry to hear about your troubles. I think we get to a stage where we know in ourselves that we cant drink anymore. Is it worth losing everything we hold dear to us especially our life. You know the answer to that question. Take ODAT that is all I do. Don't think about never drinking again, that was my downfall, just think that today you will not drink.

My last drinking bout i heard voices and that was enough of a wake up call for me to think wtf and try and stop. I do not want to even go to that place.

Please be safe and I am thinking of you. One step and one day at a time is all we can do.

Hi Hadit,
Glad you're back. Yes, we can lose everything important to us, everyone close to us, and lose our body's ability to work properly. Glad you have a plan in place!! Good luck to you.

Hi Hadit, I remember you from years back. You are welcome here, you know that. I just effed up tonight after my longest sobriety...13 days. Lame, I know...that's where I'm at. I've felt great the last two weeks, absolutely. Simply was home alone tonight. And I thought the Christmas party last night would be the hardest. Ha! I'm sure I can work through it. Better prepared. Come to MWO rather than texting friends seeking EASY justification. You can do this.

Hi, Hadit--

I have found counseling very helpful in my sobriety quest. It took me a little bit to be completely honest with her, but once I was there was no turning back. Like posting here, I can't lie - no point. She helps me with the anxiety and sad feelings that perhaps I was using the booze to mask.

Glad you have a plan. My plan includes staying close to MWO - hope you do, too.

Taking the AB is much easier then drinking, at least it is for my hubby. I am glad to see you. Please don't give up. just keep fighting. Al is just not losing your life to. every loss is a cheat to ourselves. Take care.:l

Hi Hadit,
So glad to hear from you. I started on AB this summer when I knew the constant exposure to AL was going to be too hard for me. It really has been a godsend for me -- if it helps you stay AF, please use it.
