Rock bottom

Just came out of a week detox in a facility to learn that I've been fired from my job and that I'm not allowed to see my children until I get myself together. I'm fully aware that I've lost everything to alcohol, and still at this moment all I want is a drink.

I feel broken.

I feel your pain. And raise you some ANGER ISSUES!!! IVE allowed the smallest of minds to burrow their feet within my soul as they walked all over me and I said thank you! What little I had has been taken from me and I less than zero!! Guess what!? Yea suicide is a option but not before I show them only the strong survive and make my comeback!!

The one thing comforting about rock bottom is there’s no where else to go but up.
Sending you light and I hope you can find a shred of comfort as you Navigate this.

That sucks man. But now you have a goal. Stay sober, find employment, and better yourself. Don’t beat yourself up. Be kind. Fixing relationships comes later. You need to focus on YOU right now. Get into a program. Work it honestly, and things will turn around. Good luck man!

Get into a program ASAP!

Wow, I too recently got out of detox and Already relapsed. I got refocused now and I’m choosing life not death and I’m seeking help to change by getting help to stay sober. I’m starting IOP on Wednesday and I believe my higher power whom I call God will help me change and be sober but I realize I need to do my part and do whatever I can to change. Meetings really help, church helps, making friends who are sober will help and I know the Lord loves you and promises to never leave you or forsake you. I hope you reach out to Him and people in recovery who can understand and can relate to what your going through. Hang in there and most importantly is,
NEVER GIVE UP!
