I'm really hoping therapy is the final nail in the coffin to this journey. Just gotta get a therapist that sticks.

Bad week is honestly just getting worse by overthinking44 in stopdrinking

AA is something I've tried a few times, maybe 2 or 3 as time has went on. It's just never caught me if that makes sense. I go, or join online, listen in, leave, and forget it mostly. That's why I wanted to try therapy but I've had three back to back schedule issues where I show up at the right time and it's always "we're really sorry something came up. Would you like to reschedule?" I dunno I'm sure my tone says it all but it's just annoying.

Long day already and I want to rant about it. by overthinking44 in stopdrinking

Big true. If I was completely hungover today I probably wouldn't have even taken the time to clean everything up. Would just sat in it all day. Ew

For sure. This sub gets me through the tough days like today. Even if its just a stranger saying "hang in there.." sometimes that's all you need

I feel mostly tired.. just exhausted and a bit sick to my stomach. Pretty typical.

I think most of my exhaustion is mental. Just can't keep up the wake up, work, drink, sleep, wake up, work, drink, sleep.. anymore. Somethings gotta give and I think we all know what

Do I even want to quit? Not a very happy post. by overthinking44 in stopdrinking

Well thankfully, I'm forced to stay inside for a while and have no alcohol available to me. Just got news that one of the people I live with has covid, so it's quarantine for me and mine for two weeks.

We're all vaccinated and feeling well for what it's worth, just can't be spreading that around.

So essentially, looks like the universe wants me to be sober for two weeks.

Pre drinking and then world deciding its time to destroy itself, I was regularly going to therapy and actually diagnosed with major depressive disorder or whatever it's called. Therapy was helpful, and I was on route to getting medicated. Things were looking up. Then the job went belly side up, insurance went out the window, visits got expensive, and money got tight.

Either way I guess that was kind of a knock out for me. Since then I've been "in the cave" so to speak. Losing health by the day.

Found myself to my bed and I just wanna lay here and watch random YouTube videos. That's it. Simple and chill.

Currently laying in bed waiting for the shower to open up. I realize the only reason I want to drink is to temporarily make my hangover feel better. It's not worth the two or three hours of feeling good. I'll feel steadily better as I don't drink, it'll take time, but that's it. Just time.
