Recovering Again

[HDogg]

Hey guys. I really need your thoughts and prayers. I am a recovering alcoholic, and after a 6 month relapse, I have finally quit drinking again. I have had seven days of sobriety now, but the detox period is horrible. I find that I'm extremely tired all the time--I sleep for over 12 hours a day. I am weak, irritable, and feeling generally crappy. I have had a few bouts of bad nausea, and last night I had to leave an AA meeting early, because I had bad diarrhea and felt like I was going to throw up. I am trying to go to 90 meetings in 90 days, as the program suggests, and I'm very very serious about maintaining my sobriety this time, and will go to any lengths to remain sober. But I feel pretty wretched and don't know if I can handle the daily meetings. I don't know what to do. Please pray that I'll feel better soon. [img]smileys/smilies_25.gif[/img]

Hey there, it sure sounds tough, but im sure its worth it in the long run. I know words like that dont really help. I guess all i can say is im here to talk to anytime, im online throughout the day, every day! (i have no life lol) I think ur doing great, and as for the meetings, make the effort to go and if u have to leave before the end, thats not so bad is it? At least u went! Ur showing ur commitment. Just remember that u can leave any time u want, then u wont feel trapped! Good luck, im thinking of u xxx

Hey girl Im proud of you for giving sobriety another go!


You are an amazingly strong woman and you can do this...


Stick to that 90 meetings in 90 days..it will do wonders for you in the long run. you will have the support of the group to keep you clean..and you will be forced to face life each day head on. If you make yourself go not only will you beat the alcohol..but you may work on your emet as well..facing your fears ...


good luck!!!
