I need emotional help lately. Stress is my downfall and it’s been one thing after another lately. I think i must sound like a wimp after reading other peoples challanges, but i am to the point where i must sit on my hands or i will do something stupid. I haven’t been going to meetings which is why im here now. I feel as though i am slipping and thats the last thing i want to do.

This is a ‘no slip zone’ (mostly kidding…) but it is a good space to share and connect with others! I find the app helpful to stay mindful / grounded in my sobriety.
It helps having a sober community at my fingertips (and especially helpful when I’m not really feeling an in person meeting). Welcome and I wish you the best!!
Well if u think your having a rough spot just add alcohol or drugs and think of the mess u will be in then how about asking your higher power God for help pray until the stress subsides
And keep praying everyday 10 times a day or more if u have to until your prayers per day lesson prayer is free and so are the blessings that you receive from them
You’re doing the first thing you should and that’s reaching out. I and many others here struggle with emotional balance. Had a few lately myself. But using alcohol/dope etc today its not an option if I just stick to one day at a time, meetings and talk to sponsor, pray/meditate and read something positive.
You hang in there it’s going to be alright.
S.L.I.P. Sobriety losing its priority. When I’m stressed, exhausted and just done, I lean into my sober program. Get to meetings, step work, prayer, meditation and service. Service always helps me. Above is my medicine! It used to be drugs & booze, but that just made life harder.
I’m here if you want to talk
Keep fighting Diane
