somebody talk to me

I'm in school retaking a-levels and starting at art college in september. Ive had a rough couple of years, sisters been in and out of apsychiatric hospital, brothers a drug dealer and ex-addict, loads of little things going on to drive me mad right up until now n looking for my dad again which had opened a whole can of worms I think was better left undisturbed. I'm really glad to see you still here, always gives me hope when i recognise a name around the place

TG, why don't you start writing what you think you need to do each day to stay sober, just for today? Maybe start a fresh thread and call it That Girl's Sobriety Plan? I'll go find a thread that has several people's plans in it and bump it up. I think that might give you some good ideas.

The biggest most important thing that happened on my own path to sobrity was finally accepting 100% (rather than 98% or something like that) that I just cannot drink safely, ever. Once I start...who the heck knows what's gonna happen. Holding out hope that somehow I could drink and it would be different was a huge barrier for me. Don't know if that's a factor for you too - just throwin' it out there as food for thought.
