The biggest part of being an alcoholic is the depression it leaves you with. You get stuck in this mode(not mood) that causes you to stay complacent. Alcohol used to be your motivation and gave you confidence (even though you didn't need it) Trapped is your first thought because it leaves you with only one option to break free. YOU.. Your the only person that can free you from this prison. The first step is telling yourself you don't deserve this no matter what you did. Followed by GETTING UP. Stand up and start facing the day head on. Force yourself to do daily tasks that seem to be a struggle now. Wake up, get dressed, make your bed, wash the night off you and brush your teeth, skip coffee because it just makes you jittery, drink more water, focus just on what you can do at the moment and not of the past and future, stay away from social media and tv for a bit, set some goals that you can accomplish in a day such as smiling and being kind, know your worth and believe you deserve the best, learn that being alone is just the healing process, these are just a few I can think of but you get the idea. Finally, clean house and remove everything that sets you back. You will get through this if you put the time in.
