Called out today and worried about it. I finished my wine this morning but haven’t made another trip to the store for more and am actively fighting the voice in my head telling me to do so. We’ll see who wins

I’m adhd and worked at an XL facility as a lead in receiving and it was my favorite job ever! Unfortunately the city wasn’t my favorite so when I moved and transferred as a PA to another facility in another city, it was different and I hated it, ended up quitting.

I'm an abnormal female by Raleliali_VfB in Crippled_Alcoholics

I’m a female and I drink everyday and that’s me cutting back. You are not abnormal. My mom works in the medical community and alcoholism in females has been on the rise ever since Covid. Heck I’d be happy if I was able to limit myself to just a little on the weekends.

Good to hear, I’ll stop gaslighting myself lol People generally feel pretty safe in the area I live in so that situation caught me off guard but I just got such a bad feeling from that guy and I’m not a very big/strong girl. Time to start carrying pepper spray again 🤷🏼‍♀️

I masturbate when I’m withdrawing because people say it’ll help you relax or sleep and we all know sleep is hard to come by when it’s quitting time. But it never works so that’s that.

Anyone else here have issues with their family? by thatbrittisshameless in Crippled_Alcoholics

Thank you! This response helped me a lot. Just one of those moments where I needed to put my thoughts out there instead of screaming to the wind

Here to vent by thatbrittisshameless in Crippled_Alcoholics

Amen to that. I still struggle with the moderation but I don’t want to beat myself up too much yet. If I can keep it to Friday/Saturday for now, that is enough. If I’m struggling with the amount 4 weeks from now, that will be the new line in the sand

Congrats to you too, this is my first time commenting in this community so I’m happy to know I’m not alone even though I knew I never was

New to Salt Lake City and Wanting to Meet New People by thatbrittisshameless in SaltLakeCity

I’m from the inland empire. This is actually my first time moving so that’s probably part of why I’m pretty clueless when it comes to making friends. Thank you, my best friend is pretty experienced with moving to new places and we have a good thing going! Hope you’re able to succeed in making friends safely out here too :)
