Hi guys and girls, I recently relapsed about a month ago and need help/support with this. I’m trying hard….backed off the hard liquor to IPA beers to now regular beers and down to about 6-8 beers a day. I’ve been working out, going shopping, eating and staying hydrated as much as possible but I’m still drinking and need to stop before I go home next week. Hospital is only a quick fix to hydrate but I’m taking care of that. I wake up willing, hopeful and pray to God but after about a few hours I have a beer or two, stop , then I have another beer or two but I normally don’t drink after 8 pm as I make sure I eat, shower, pray and watch the news until I fall asleep. Doesn’t sound bad, but for me, it’s just a bomb waiting to explode….meetings in my area are not helping me either…sorry for the long write, but just reaching out….

Only reason I’m sober today is I choose to be sober more than I want to get drunk

AA didn't work for me the 1st go around, but once I got desperate enough and was willing to make it my lifeline, it became just that. It only works if you do everything asked of you without reservation. Meaning lots of meetings (I usually go twice a day), a sponsor, and working the steps. If that doesn't work, there are other programs.
