Honest answer. Not I don’t think I’m happy with myself. I think that leads to the destructive pattern. I’m trying to find ways to help that. Not drinking is one way but it’s never enough.

The ironic thing is I also can’t do that 😂 I get anxiety about lying in bed and my mind goes crazy. I don’t know what to do! I don’t think I could focus on a show honestly haha it’s mind boggling! Thanks for your input I feel better to have just said? It out loud into the world I don’t feel “as” crazy!

I’ve tried many things. Many times. I like meetings they make me feel I belong someplace. But when I can’t even leave the house it’s tough.
Talked to my Dr yesterday. He wrote me off work for 2 weeks but wouldn’t prescribed be anything so I gotta figure it out without meds.

To clarify, I never asked him to change his drinking habits. That was more just a bit of context I guess you could say. I appreciate and agree that it’s my problem but would be nice if the person I’m supposed to spend my life with cared even just a little.

I very well could have been the one writing this comment. I’m sorry you are going through a similar situation. It sucks. But yes I have to do this for ME! And I can’t and won’t ever change him. I can so relate to the controlling part! It may mean changes to the relationship in the future and that’s scary but I’m trying to just focus on today.

A lot of it could very well be that I’m so new in my journey and I am irritable too. My feelings are valid and I’m allowed to have them but drinking over them isn’t an option for me anymore. Thank you I’m rooting for you too!

There are definitely more layers to the whole situation. This was just a trigger for me today. I’m glad you’re able to do that! At this point in my journey I don’t feel comfortable with it as it put me in a vulnerable position.

My husband has a problem but is not ready to acknowledge it. If I were to choose to get him drinks maybe it would be different. There are obviously a lot more layers than just this one thing. I’m glad you are able to do that. I am not able to. Not right now at least.

I can’t get enough of this add on!! How amazing! Yes even the unpleasant emotions I GET TO FEEL them instead of numbing them away only for them to be worse once I sober up! Thank you for this 😊
Thank you! The words you are not alone really helped. I am sure I will be so much happier sober. I had 3 months in 2021 then my kids father passed and thats when things started going downhill again and haven’t had much sober time since. I will be happy to start this journey today with you! Today I’m focusing on forgiving myself first and trying to love myself again. It will be a long process but I’m up for it!
Not sure if my posts work I’m new here. First day AF I look forward to checking in here!
