iv said and done some horrible things the past couple of days while drunk. Im so ashamed n feel so guilty I'm not sure how I can cope, I dont know how to. I need to drink but I know I might do something stupid if i do. Iv never hated myself more. I used to be a good person now i'm just a pathetic excuse for a human being. I dont know what the point in this post is I just had to get it off my chest.

Hi, that feeling will pass. The more time you get away from the booze, the better your brain will work. Stop beating yourself up, it's pointless and of no value to anyone. The day you find a time machine, ill be the first in line to fix some of the shit I have done. Until that happens treat yesterday, and all of life's yesterday's as merely lessons to learn from. Attach no emotion, just calmly pick them apart and find the errors in judgement and learn how to make better decisions. This, after all, is the crux of the solution, make better decisions.
You are allowed to stuff it up as you learn. Most of us are emotionally stunted to some degree, hence the reliance on al. Don't rip into yourself, just learn. It takes time to take on this big bad world with out any chemical help, and that is something that you will also have to make peace with. You can't avoid the inevitable conclusion that, for some of us, al is just not an option and can never be. If this is you as well the the quicker you accept this reality fully and totally the quicker you will adapt to your new life.
I hope you continue to fight and while everyone's pathway is different, the life on the other side of addiction is worth he fight and the continued vigilance.
Good luck.I refuse to be labelled or ashamed. Through my struggles I am achieving self awareness and clarity.Comment

Hi Cuddle!
Just wanted to chime in and see how you are doing. I did so much stupid sh*t when I was drinking...but guess what? I got past it and so can you. Like Dave said, the more time spent away from AL, the clearer you will think...and people will SEE that you are different. Please don't give up. You can do this, and we can help.
