K9,

I would have been so out of here if I thought and did that. My friends here understood and so do I.

I know, I mean really know, how hard it is to get back on track once you have relapsed.

"A mind is a terrible thing to waste" but it fights us all the way. (Am I one of the few that knows that ad?)

Hang in there. Keep posting honestly but STOP!!!

I understand and so do many others who have relapsed. You can stop again. Really. :l:l

Love,
Cindi

Thank you Cinders,
You really are one of the pillars of this community, and I DO get it, I really do. Dang, I wish it wasnt such a struggle. I wish every day wasnt a fight for survival. It gets tiring.

K9 - this is what this site is for, never forget that!
We are all here as a support system to each other because we understand and we all share a common goal. For you to not post but go drink defeats the purpose of us all. Keep coming here, together we will work this out. My heart goes out to you :l

K9 i keep waking up saying OK NO MORE! and by 2pm im putting a bottle or two in the fridge. I have no fight left. What is encouraging is that you have nailed this before which means i can. But we are in the same slippery slope. PM me anytime. I feel so alone in this mess and it feels like no one understands. You and me, we can do this together? God i hope so. I have turned to the lord because i cant do this on my own. I need his strength but i keep letting him down. hell the torment is unreal. Dont give up hun and i wont either.
THINKING OF YOU xxooo

it sucks doesnt it, how hard it is, but no matter how many times we fall down, as long as we keep picking ourselves then we are on the right path, keep posting hun, you will get there.
one thing I find helps is checking out the stories on the Family members Affected by AL" thread under Of Special Interest, and the Rain in my Heart doco's
good luck

I think it is only natural to feel like this but not coming here is the worst thing you can do. Actually posting is exactly the thing to do, BEFORE that first drink gets picked up. But you know that. Its your choice to make that call K9. Come on you know the drill, let today be the first day of the rest of your life, not a continuation of this poxy merry-go-round of drinking followed by the regrets and then doing the very same thing again the very next day. Someone once said here, if I burn my hand on the stove do I need to keep touching it to find out its hot?

The key I find is to stop fighting, which means giving in and NOT drinking. Which is how I see what I had to do last night. My brain was telling me to drink so I retreated to the comfort of my bed. I've had a lie in today and just taking it easy.

Far easier than struggling with it.

Hi K9, just wanted to send some love and hugs your way :l:l:l
I don't know if this helps at all, but when I'm struggling, I stop thinking about it as ODAT, and I break it down to one minute at a time, one second at a time. I was at a neighbours and surrounded by drink one night, and I kept saying to myself "right this second, I am not going to drink, right this second I am not going to drink" I just focussed on the moment, on not drinking that very moment - don't even think about 24 hours.
