I’m so sorry for your loss. Please remember that drinking is only going to make the situation and the pain worse. I don’t know you or your daughter but I’m sure that she would not want that for you. Holding you in prayer.

I’m so sorry for your loss. I cannot imagine what you are going through. I do know that drinking will not improve any situation for an alcoholic. Get to lots of meetings, call your sponsor and keep reaching out.

I'll never understand grief but what i do know is time is the only healer. Make her the reason not to drink. All you can do is one day at a time and also with the loss of your daughter.
I do believe you heard her. I heard my fiance say those exact.same.words."I'm so sorry" I'll never forget it. Stay strong for yourself your grandkids and other children. My prayers are with you🩷

I actually just lost my stepdad today. He was sick for a while. I know it's not the same but I think I can feel some of what you're going through. I keep reminding myself that grief is the price of love. The pain means your daughter was that loved. To try to numb th.e pain is to try to numb the love too.
Talk to a sponsor, friends, family, or therapist. Addiction loves isolation so keep fighting it by reaching out and sharing.
My heart goes out to you tonight. Stay strong and thank you for sharing with us.

life can be hard but the loss of a child seems so much more difficult because it’s just not supposed to happen and we don’t expect it too.

Thoughts and prayers of course.
Nothing and I mean nothing will he better by picking up. Tour young one would he upset to know.
Use the focus of your grief to help take grief from someone else. Do the unbelieveable under the circumstances as a way to help heal yourself.

3 weeks ago, yesterday, I got the call that brought me to my knees and shattered my heart and soul. I am surviving. I do not have a sober community and I do not have friends left from my drinking years (which was nearly my entire life) so I have been doing this solo for the most part. I did attend a grief support group last week and start counseling this week. I know how important community and support is so I am finally just doing “it” and attending an AA meeting at noon today; I need people. It has been difficult to maintain my sobriety but I know that I have to. I know that drinking is not an option but my brain keeps telling me that it’s what I need to feel “normal”. My daughter died while drinking and driving. There is no way in h*ll that I will allow alcohol to take me as well; I have an even bigger mission now.
The meals and daily text check ins have stopped but the pain hasn’t, it’s gotten worse. I truly appreciate you checking in. -Dre
