Hmm if your not sure let me save you the trouble of going through more suffering before you have a wake up call.. lost 15 year relationship due to drugs and alcohol. Didn't cheat but did awful things I wouldn't have if I wasn't using . Totally out of character and ended in same result . Loosing my love and best friend. Nothing worse then loosing the thing that means the most to you because your acting out of character due to drugs and alcohol.

And forever is a big commitment for some but the Cool thing is you don't gotta tell yourself forever .. just for now just for today ya know ? Give it a go. You might just end up wanting it to be forever after your get into a groove with sobriety.

G,
What has happened will keep repeating itself in lessor or worse forms. Humiliation is the sign. Waking up and not remembering. Remembering and so embarrassed by the thought of what you did. Or said. Or allowed to happen.
If you don't see it yet... hopefully you will. May God be with you on your pathway. Talk to him as he walks with you, keep talking to him.

Well, my story has me drinking and I wanted to stop. I couldn’t. I would drink and drink , then do drugs. Then made people mad . So I too ruined my relationship. I tried to get sober, stay sober and then think I can drink like a gentleman. Wrong, I drank again and it was like I never stopped. Right back where I left off plus some! This time there was no repairing the damage. Divorce was the only thing. So, if you’re tired of being sick and tired? Go to a meeting. AA meetings saved my life. I just finished my daily reprieve. I have a life I couldn’t ever dream of thanks to sobriety, God, AA and my support group! And this App!
Best wishes to you my friend! Get sober for you!

I understand what your going through. What happened to you usually is caused bye not drinking enough water or having any food in your stomach. There’s nothing in your body to filter the alcohol. Especially if your having mic drinks. And I think you need to be honest with who eve your with and let them know how you get. And not to allow you to drink so much or not to leave you alone. Yo also need to implant this behavior into your head. So this dose not happen again. You should lay off the alcohol for awhile or for good. If you black out every time next time you may wake up in some strangers or strangers room. The worst feeling there is waking up the next morning not having a clue when with who and where and having everyone tell you about it! It could ruin your life for a while or permanently.

It’s one and mainly the reason I stopped. I got violent na lot and hurt a lot of people not remembering the next day. I’m not small guy either so i re realized that one day I could really hurt some one or worst. And I said to my self. God it would really suck so bad if I ever ended up in jail and not remembering anything not one thing of what happened. Think about that. Now that’s punishment and h….on earth. To be imprisoned and not having any clue or remembering anything?! That’s what scared me straight

Button line I dated many good women in my life time and i can say all of them where the one not one bad seed in any of them. But I hid my demons so deep in me that I purposely ruined and scared each one no thanks to my use of alcohol and drugs.and I can tell you I’m a great guy carting supportive understanding and forgiving. How I know this cause I’ve talked to each one of them years later. I have no shame in sharing this with you or any one or am I going to sugar coat anything. Yes to be sober is the greatest feeling ever not to be a slave. The errors you comité while drunk or high. Will always be in the back of your mind will hunt you.

I thought I could drink again it didn’t work! I have to much to lose! I see that now. There can never be another drink!
How are you
I’m still sober!! I’ve joined a “discovery group” for addiction that goes over tips and tools to manage alcohol and how to decide if sobriety or moderation is the next step. I’m still not sure what I will do, but I’m glad that I’ve decided to be alcohol free until I’m possibly ready to give moderation a try. I’ve been much healthier recently too, and have been working out regularly and eating more nutritiously. How are you doing Armando?
I’m doing great getting back in shape staying strong living life how it should be enjoyed.
