    In a bad place

    I feel terrible, I had several weeks of sobriety, then blew it and got caught driving, I am so very ashamed and guilty, just had to share, these are the worst days of my life.....

    In a bad place

    I've been there. Even worse, my son was in the car.

    I was ashamed and didn't feel that I deserved any of the support or condolences from family and friends.

    A friend told me that I made a bad decision and I can't hold that against myself for the rest of my life. That made me feel better. It was a bad decision with horrible results.

    But we are human and make mistakes.

    I think mine was a cry for help. Deep down I wondered if people didn't see my pain, couldn't see why I was drinking, or didn't care enough to ask.

    I am still ashamed of what I did, but I keep it in the past, where it belongs. Today, I will not drink & drive and I can be proud of myself for making a better choice now.

    Heads up, girl. It does get better!

        Hi Joesgal,
        I've had 2 DUI's...not exactly my shining moments, but I got past them and all the reprocussions of them. I know it seems hard now, but you can move on. Why don't you tell us more about yourself so we can get to know you? Or go over to the Newbies Nest, you will find lots of experience there.

                That's the right attitude to have! You hold the key. Let this be the turning point. This could have easily been most any of us here.

                    In a bad place

                    Looking for answers.

                    Well hello everyone. I have been doing really well them all of a sudden I find myself back at square one again. I take kudzu. l-glut, thistle 3 times a day. At first all three worked wonderfully keeping me from drinking, But. the last week I have drank to excess three days and am now feeling the guilt shame etc.... the combination that worked at first does not seem to have the same effect. I will admit it money is one of the issues. Plus living with a problem drinker is terrible. I get support from friends and check in daily but that does not take care of the magic hour from 5 to 7. I am wondering if any one has ordered anti craving meds on line and the dosage; I am desperate. I cannot go through this without help and I know this now. I am in a very troubled place with my life right now. I want to be free of the yuckiness. I hope someone will answer this post and shed some light.

                    I cannot afford a doctor visit right now. I will be able to purchase the meds next week sometime. I know from experience that If I am not around it I wont do it. I am truly needing some answers, Please help. :upset:

                      azurmyst, I really feel for you, I know exactly what you mean about the yuckiness.....but as someone said to me recently, this too will pass. Not much comfort I know, but I just keep thinking that it is true and I hope and pray that it will for you as well. I was able to get the kudzu etc on this website, I wish you well in your recovery hang in there

                        Azurmyst I haven't taken any prescription meds for this, but I think you'll get more answers if you ask your questions in the "Topamax, Campral, Naltrexone, Baclofen, other meds" section of this site. Best wishes to you.
