Really struggling right now! Just got into it with baby daddy and I want to use so bad. I’m in tears! Help.

Hi Sara, take a few deep breaths, get a piece of paper or go into the notes section of your phone and write out a gratitude list and then write out all the reasons you really don’t want to use, then see if things change. If they don’t, do it again. If you can, get to a meeting, too.

I think you are so awesome for getting on here and asking for help instead of drinking!! That in itself is a victory!! You can do this! You know drinking will only make things worse. Keep pushing thru your feelings. It takes strength and courage. Pray for it, and you will be granted enough to this one day at a time

Sara nice work reaching out like this!! I hope you made it through without picking up!! Nothing and no one is worth your sobriety!! I lost everything due to my drinking...one of the suggestions that helped me so much every time I was in one of these situations was to write a list of everything I had lost or would lose if I picked up. And then I had to put a price tag next to each thing. That was a quick reality check!!
