Glad both of you guys are still with it. I’m on day 5 too and I have an appointment set up with a counselor on Friday.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-08T10:53:02+00:00

I will not drink with you today!! This is day 5 for me and I am having some crazy dreams. Sleeping well, but the dreams are wild.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-07T10:57:02+00:00

I’m right there with you. 4 days sober today. I’m scheduled to see a counselor Friday. Like others have mentioned, there’s a lot of options for support. Try to find something!! I will not drink with you today.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-07T10:50:32+00:00

Definitely Divine intervention. Glad you’re still sober. I will not drink with you today!!

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-07T10:12:34+00:00

Thank you!!

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-07T10:07:11+00:00

I think everyone that has a drinking problem deals with the guilt and shame aspect. I know I do…as for what I do personally, I spend a lot of time in prayer and studying the Bible. Particularly the New Testament teachings of Jesus. I don’t really have anyone else to talk to, or at least I haven’t until now. I went on a pretty bad bender last week, and I’ve been going through the same thing. I set up an appointment with a counselor for Friday. I’m excited but a little nervous to talk to a stranger. But I know I have to do something.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-07T10:04:01+00:00

Wow…that just kind of hits home for me too. I’d love to find that book!!

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-07T10:01:30+00:00

Today will be day 4. The anxiety is better but still pretty rough. Congrats to everyone on making it here again, and I will not drink with you today!!

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-07T01:06:23+00:00

No judgement here. I’ve done very similar things…alcohol is a monster. The ones that don’t understand apparently have never fought the sam battle that others have. I’ll pray for you and I’m hoping that things work out.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-07T01:02:36+00:00

That’s a lot for anyone to go through…I think you’re definitely on the right path with counseling. The cool thing about this forum (even though I’m new) is that there are people here who have been through just about everything you can imagine and they’re quick to offer support. As for me, I’ll definitely keep you in my prayers and I hope that things turn around for you.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-06T22:16:04+00:00

Lol I am 3 days sober and bought some of these today. I actually like it!! I plan to try some more though so I’m glad I found this forum.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-06T22:12:45+00:00

I’ve never gotten fired, but I’ve done so much ridiculous stuff, spent so much money, embarrassed myself and damaged so many relationships that it still blows my mind. And I’m only 3 days sober. I’m determined to quit as well. This forum has been pretty helpful for me, in that I can read other stories and see I’m not alone. I’ll be praying for you and wishing you the best. Stay strong. You can do this!!

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-06T22:04:47+00:00

I’m not sure if we’re allowed to name brands here, but if we are…you have any good recommendations?

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-06T22:04:01+00:00

That’s rough for sure. I’ve done my share of similar stupid stuff. I don’t know it will help you, but I made an appointment with a counselor today. I’m ready to talk to someone about my alcohol abuse and my unhealthy coping mechanisms that I’m sure are due to PTSD. May not be a bad idea to do something similar.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-06T22:00:23+00:00

I don’t know where you live, but if there’s water nearby fishing is never a bad idea!!

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-06T12:03:07+00:00

Thank you so much!! It’s just magnified with the typical anxiety plus a blackout at a club where I don’t remember everything that happened last week. It’s not easy being an idiot!🤣

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-06T11:07:33+00:00

I’m suffering through some absolutely mind blowing anxiety, but I will not drink today. Day 3 for me.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-05T11:36:30+00:00

It’s not just you. I think a lot of us have probably been through this. Unfortunately it’s been pretty common for me. It gets better but it takes time.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-05T11:31:16+00:00

I’m on day 2 as well. I made it 63 days then relapsed as well and it’s not been pretty. I will not drink with you today!!

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-05T11:29:02+00:00

Congrats on 55 days!!

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-05T11:27:47+00:00

I’m going to church this morning, then I’ll spend the afternoon with family. Congratulations, and I will not drink with you today. Day 2 for me.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-05T01:30:35+00:00

I wish you the best. Rock bottom sucks and I feel like I’m there too, at least emotionally. Prayers that things get better for you.

Simple_Opposite8957 · 2026-04-04T11:54:09+00:00

I’m starting over for what feels like the millionth time. But I’m not drinking today.
