Welp yesterday was the day all my tickets and suspensions

Struggling Help
#1

Welp yesterday was the day all my tickets and suspensions came to a head. I even need to get a breathalyzer because my blood alcohol was a 1.9 Yesterday was a tuff day. Real hard. But I know I did it to myself and can't keep beating myself up but to learn from it and never drink again. Hard pill to swallow this could of all been avoidable if I just didn't drive. And here I thought I knew better.
Today is better than yesterday. I have a financial strain and struggle also. It could be worse right??:smirk:

Yeah it could be a lot worse. Hold that thought! It never gets better.

If you think your able to drink like a non alcoholic some would say go ahead and we’ll be here when you come back.

I don’t know if you are in AA, but if you need a sponsor and a great place to go for meetings I could introduce you to several great ladies at a Sunday morning meeting.

No I'm aware I'm a binge drinker for over 20 yrs. I've been going stong sober since this mess Sep 25th with no real desire to drink. The shame keeps me sober. Now I get to ride around with a breathalyzer for a year.

I'm not ready for AA and I can't even leave my house :laughing: I'd be open to online tho

It works, though; start with one

Well, when you are ready… let me know. I remember how intimidating it was walking into my first meeting. If I didn’t have my friend with me I don’t think I would have done it.

Glad to hear today is better than yesterday! Can't change what happened yesterday, still doesn't mean it doesn't suck. I had to stop telling myself "well it could be worse" because that takes away from the pain and frustration I felt in the situation, whatever it was. I had to feel those situations, cope with them, and face them. Now I tell myself, "it could be better right?" And figure out how to live my life to make it better :grin:

I'm spiritual but don't believe in organized religion. And don't understand the big book? I'm slightly stubborn in wanting to understand it. I need more like minded ppl from all aspects and backgrounds which is why I truly like it and check in daily here.
