Just made 31 days sober, and I want to throw it away. Swirling around with bipolar and all the other nonsense going on in my head, this is something that pills can't help me with. I am bored, alone and craving.
I look over the minutia of my life and I wonder what's the point. What's the point in trying to say sober, to try and lose weight, find a job or anything. There is no point to anything. Drowning in a deep abyss. I just want to matter. To someone, anyone. Lost, broken. Heartache, Heartbreak. Just a mountain. The mountain is too high to climb.... __________________ Tales of Love, Motivation, and An Interesting Journey - Please Subscribe to my Website on WordPress: Inspired Odyssey's Path to Wellness and Love |

I am sorry you are having a rough day. I had a tough time the first month or two then things got better as far as wanting a drink. All I can say is hang in there and maybe try to find something to do to take your mind off of it. I remember I used to go for a few walks a day. Going for a long walk and enjoying the scenery is something that will got me out of my head. Also, I liked to go to a café and get a cup of coffee. Going to the library or bookstore and finding something to read that interests you might help. Well, those are a few of the things I did. Just try to hang in there and tomorrow will be better hopefully. Take care.

I'm heading for one month sober. But I've had an easier ride than you. I really feel for you. I know how hard it can be. I see it in my mother who just can't stop, even though she's been lying for more than a year that she has.
You've done so well and been so strong to get to 31 days. I know you are struggling to feel proud of yourself, but I feel proud of you. __________________  Crying isn't a sign of weakness. It's a sign of having tried too hard to be strong for too long. |

Good job on the 31 days.
 Just remember that it's the enemy in your head trying to convince you to drink.

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
