Hi everyone, this is my 1st post on this board. I just suffered an alcohol withdrawal seizure and giant supermarket. Spent 13 days in the hospital, 6 in the ICU . Is chronic relapser. Tired of it hopefully I got it this time.
You can do this. You have to do this. It will be the hardest thing you have ever done for yourself. It will be the best thing you have done for yourself. Maybe take a picture of that icu bed and carry it with you? Don’t know. But I do know you will be supported here
Let the bad shit motivate you and feeling good sustain you. Don’t detox alone. It is too dangerous
Thats sheer grace... its a chance to become better. You are planted here for a good reason....wow many don’t make it out of that! O2-28-2OO2
Thank you everybody
If you don’t mind me asking. What was your drinking like. My therapist is concerned about me detoxing at home.
You have been through so much. You are meant to live and help others
Your past is your best asset. When we visit it, we want it to be a very short visit & not an extended one. Reach out like you are now
Jason, welcome to Loosid. Welcome back to sobriety.
Suggestion would be to go to AA meeting or Zoom meeting. Get a sponsor. Read the big book. Learn the steps. Do the steps. I’m happy to hear you made it through the hospital and ICU. I couldn’t imagine what it was like for. Your story can help others before they to have a seizure if you’re willing to go to any lengths to get what we have. It’s your choice to make. I can read it in your post the courage you have. Take that next step for you and no one else.
Just take one day at a time
