All my insecurities are starting to come to the surface! I think I’ve been drowning my thoughts/feelings so I didn’t have to look at myself or my actions. I’m starting to think this might have been ONE of the (many) reasons this got so out of control. I am using this site as my personal log. It’s time to be accountable.

Welcome! Four days heading for five! You are in the right place. I used alcohol to drown my feelings and insecurities for 30 years. I totally understand. I couldn’t even look 
in mirror near the end of my career drinking. It gets better slowly but surely as you begin to feel physically better and the fog clears. Take it one day at a time. You can do this! Reach out …. People on here really want to help!

Hey Emily!! I can definitely relate and know I used alcohol to drown out alot of emotions. When I started this journey I was overwhelmed with all the emotions I hide with alcohol, racing them was an extremely hard step for me. Congratulations on wanting to take accountability, hope your feeling good on Day 5🙂 If you ever want or need to chat, feel free to reach out! Have a blessed week!

Careful with the word "try," because it implies the possibility of failure. Someone with 4 days is not failing, IMHO.
