I’m struggling w booze I need to figure this out I can’t just have one. I need to be healthy for my young kids. I’ve lost my gf and my job. I can’t continue this way. God please stay close to me and give me the strength to say no the alcohol
Just try your best to really take one day at a time. This won’t happen overnight. You must commit to this lifetime marathon. Also, thank God you lost your GF and not your kids to the court system. Try to see and be grateful in all turmoil. It becomes selfish of us when we drink and chose to drink over people like kids or spouses. The next thing you’ll lose will be your kids to the system. Trust me I see it daily. And after your kids you’ll lose your life health wise and deteriorate slowly and eventually die from your disease.
So if you want this you have to commit 1000%. Also stop having pity for yourself. You made the decision to go and drink. Happy you’re on here saying what you said. That’s a start but if you want to drink you’ll make that decision no anyone on this app or anyone you know. So choose today do you want life or do you want death. Those are our two options we have. And if you chose life you better be dang grateful you got another shot here on this earth and work your tail off to earn life we don’t deserve.
Good luck get to a meeting shut your mouth and use the two things on your head EARS! Humble yourself and do it.
Thanks Andrew I appreciate the good words. I am going to look into meetings here in my town.
