Stay strong and try not to beat yourself up. You have already made the hardest step. Keep your head held high and one foot in front of the other.

I've been there and it's tough! You can be free from alcohol though, and not ever binge again. Realizing that the benefits I perceived alcohol to bring were actually illusions opened my eyes recently, and my life is changed. I highly recommend a book, Alan Carr's quit drinking without willpower, that has led me to freedom. No urges, no triggers, just freedom from the poison that has been marketed to us as fun do so long. You can be free of the poison for sure

Are you doing this alone?

My question to you is what are you doing outside of this app? This app is great for moral support but it is most definitely not a solution.

I finally get it right on my 4,736,837,947 attempt. Don't give up. A breakthrough is right around the corner.

Kind of.. but a couple coworkers are sober so just tryna hang w them more
I appreciate you being up front.. going to some meetings.. looking for another female I can just relate to or vent to. Also been journaling and exercising. Also back on the meds I use to function so that should help. Thanks for reaching out!
Sober or they just don't drink? Big difference. Please get yourself a sober support group. Check out some women's AA meetings.

Sorry, I didn't mean to sound bossy!
Reach out! We’re all here to help
Hey Sarah, self knowledge and fingers crossed never helped me. This app is amazing but won’t keep me sober either. If you truly want to stop you need to be living a program. AA is a great starting point. Sorry if that sounded like I was talking at you. I had so many moments of self realizations…. Oh. Now I know. This is me and this is why. They are nice moments but they afforded me nothing more than a week or two of sobriety. I have to live the life designed by AA. It turns out it’s not a bad life at all! Give it a try.

Just take it one day at a time.
It's a daily struggle for me.
For me it's the loneliness that gets me the worst.

As long as you keep it simple and not use for the day you win the race for that day
