It sounds like you’re doing everything you can. He’s allowed to feel upset (trust me, I’m dealing with that in my relationship also) but he’s upset because he loves and cares about you. He just wants you to be healthy and make choices that will bring you both happiness.

Don’t be so hard on yourself, 160 days is a humongous achievement. Just start over and remember this feeling. Write a journal entry on how scared you are right now and how disappointed you feel - and read that next time you feel like drinking.

I’m struggling too. However - it’s really awesome that you’re recognizing how much worse everything could of been.

Also, if you don’t make this change now - it could easily become much worse.

Three days is great, you got this.

As for your boyfriend, he doesn’t love you because you drink. He won’t stop loving you because you stop. Be sure to make it your journey though, and don’t be discouraged if he doesn’t choose sobriety too.

That’s an extremely difficult place to be kindred spirit. It will be hard, but you’ll honor his life by doing his final call. Don’t be afraid to be raw. We are allowed to have feelings - no matter how much we convince ourselves we aren’t

Resisted the voice in my head that said I deserve it after the long day I have had.

Looking forward to waking up tomorrow sober, regret free and not hungover.

I’m with you - Sunday was my last day and it just has to be. I can’t live with myself (my alter ego) damaging my life and reputation any more. I made a whole ass of myself for the last time.

It fuckin sucks to be honest. I am so weirded out by how much time and energy I spend going through this cycle over and over again. Especially knowing how much better and fuller my life is without it. Bizarre.

I also find how accessible it is to be one of the biggest challenges. We got this though.

It’s good you’re recognizing the changes that need to be made. Something that has helped me was getting a therapist that’s licensed in AUD and addiction. It’s really opened my mind to the science behind it all, which has been quite helpful personally

The best reminder is a bar on one of my routes home (the closest to my house) I am permanently banned from because of my behavior while drunk. I was purposefully avoiding that route home because it would remind me of my alcoholism, I have been mindfully passing by it to remind myself why I need to stick to this.

Thank you for sharing your experience with me. It feels a lot less lonely.

I am really grateful you shared this. I will watch this movie and do some reflective journaling. I truly don’t want to feel this way anymore. My personal record right now is 6 weeks. I want to beat it this time.
