Maybe you are an addict. Simple but not easy

I had a hard day as well. I did some talking out loud with God while driving to a book study tonight. Then I open up IG to read a message from a friend and it’s exactly the answer I needed to hear today.
I didn’t drink because I don’t want to go back to that life. But it’s hard sometimes to lean on my HP for the answers. But when I say f it and have that conversation with God, I get the help I need. Now I just need to keep listening and praying and take action on the answer.

You are in the right place. You are right where you are supposed to be. Try an AA meeting or any other 12 step program that fits you.

You're human. We mess up at times. Do you have a sponsor or a list of people you can call when you're struggling?

Morning
No, I do not. Appreciate your understanding. I have a live in friend and told him I needed his support but on the contrary he goes and buys me alcohol since I don’t like spending my money on that. I’d do so much better if he left. I already gave him a date to move out :woman_shrugging:t2:. Thank you.

Very inspirational. Thank you.

Thank you for your kind words. Made me feel better. Have a great weekend.

It's not you, it's the drug at work. If we remember that there's no real benefit from the drug it makes it way easier to love life on life's terms. This moment is new, let's make the best of it.

I'm glad you set boundaries. It's so dumb to buy anyone [regardless of their sober status] any substance when they're struggling.

Be compassionate with yourself and forgive yourself. You are only human, we all mess up and make mistakes. I understand your thinking completely, I’m also a recovering perfectionist. You made a mistake and that’s ok. As long as you can learn from it and keep moving forward in your healing and sobriety that’s all that matters. Give yourself some grace, a lot of us have relapse in our story. You are not alone. It’s ok. Just get back up again. You can do this :heart::raised_hands:

Thank you so much.

No big deal…start over. I started AA over in December..no 30 chip yet. But I can feel a difference. It helps to hear positive recovery messages..I’ve started over 12 times. I have one-week today. No one shamed me or made me feel bad. Alcohol does that. I felt like I was drinking liquid depression. I drank socially with myself. Yeah I drank alone. How fun is that? When I’m drinking all I think about is how bad I feel. Nobody will give up on you. Don’t give up on yourself.

Thank you so much.

Nothing. You are human. We mess up. It’s life on life’s terms. Without failure, we cannot succeed. Get back up and start again using what you’ve learned. You can do this🙂

Absolutely nothing is wrong with you. Pick yourself up and put one foot in front of the other with some knowledge from this experience :slight_smile:

You made a mistake put your big pants on and be a big girl go find something that you love call on people do something , go write something , go do something that you’ve always wanted to do ,go traveling, change your script and most of all change your thoughts , I thought life was so hard it’s not. I’m hard on me , try smart recovery.
