I am grateful that I still have a good job and that my kids don’t seem to think less of me though they’ve seen me pretty drunk. Like-this last Sunday. I still feel like a loser for that.
Each day we’re looking for progress, not perfection and it doesn’t happen overnight… don’t feel like a loser. Just apologize to your kids and all you can do is try not to repeat it in the future one day at a time my friend.
Thanks; I just hope I can keep this awareness and not give in to drinking. Reading stuff from this app daily I feel like is really helping me. Thank you again
Believe it or not, but it helps me as well, just by reaching out and talking to somebody else who understands!!!
We all feel like losers it’s like the walk of shame on a Monday morning when u embarrassed urself at a work event….I’m sure many of us have done that…keep ur head up
Oh my goodness, do I know about that! Years ago, my work had a golf outing, I cannot count how many beers I drank, a bunch of us went on a bender, and we’re racing golf carts all over the course, I’m actually surprised we were not ejected. Then the next year, same job, they did an overnight hotel stay conference with unlimited drinks, a bunch of us went up to the swimming pool and decided it was a good idea to skinny dip. We should’ve been arrested. That event career limited me at that job, the main boss wanted to fire me terribly, but too many people were involved. What a fool. My life would be so much better, I’d have such a higher level position had I not been drinking. Would’ve made it much better life for my kids. But I do have a really good job now and just need to work hard to stay sober.
I’ve been there haha there’s even a video to prove it
I’ve come to terms with all the terrible embarrassing stuff I’ve done. I can even laugh about most of them now. Just taking it day by day
