I know it’s not good to dwell on the past but lately I can’t stop thinking about how the heck I let myself get here….

Unfortunately we don’t have Time Machines yet!! But there is a future that you can control.

I keep getting told to let the past go but I agree it’s so hard when it’s brought up by family. Some nights I sit and I can’t believe how many times since 2019 to 2020 I had to be hospitalized. I am so disgusted with myself because I watched my brother die the color of a lemon but yet I did the same thing. 32 months the other day and past is just there ready to make me cry again. But through this disaster I made some amazing recovery friends and finally deleting the people who will not stop throwing things in my face. You can do this. I hope you have a recovery team because without them no doubt I would be stupid again. One day at a time is my absolute favorite saying. Best wishes. You got this :heart:

I think about alcohol a lot lately… not so much cravings just really can’t believe I allowed it to become such a problem but I agree we all take one day at a time and focus on the future

Hi Morgan.
At a point we will not regret the past nor wish to shut the door in it.
We will intuitively know how to deal with situations that used to baffle us.
The thing is. We get to forgive ourselves. We are sick individuals who were foggy and not in our right minds. We can look back at the past to learn and grow. :heart::pray:
