Hi nurse........it matters not what you did yesterday or the days or years before then. All that truly matters is what you do from this moment forward. Each of us have things in life that we could perhaps have done differently or somehow better, but, those times are gone, so........let it all go.
Life is for living.......savour every moment......we`re only getting one life. RJ highly recommends Louise Hay`s "You Can Heal Your Life", which I have read.......I think it would be an apt starting point for where your head is at just now. My best to you, Darling x

Nurse,
I completely understand how you feel. I have felt that way so many times during my battle with this. I finally figured out that it only leads me to drink more. Feeling bad about myself, not worth the effort it takes to sober up, unworthy. Chin up. You are worth it. You are a good person. You can get your life back. Love, Cindi

learning to forgive myself has been critical in my recovery also.
nobody in their right mind would hurt themselves the way i did with alcohol. yet I did it anyway. obviously my mind is not quite right

Nurse, I was reading Deepack Chopra last night and this stuck with me.....
"Our failures are stepping stones in the mechanics of creation, bringing us ever closer to our goals. In reality, there is NO such thing as failure. What we call failure is just a mechanism through which we can learn to do things right."

Oh I hate that feeling... I always tell Jesus about it - he understands and makes me feel that much better!

Hi, I just joined this forum again, belonged about a year ago. I wish I didn't drink!!! Sometimes I think that it's impossible, that I will always drink, that I can't be cured. I am feeling terrible right now, hung over, ashamed, down. I just got off the phone with my boyfriend, got drunk the other night, said stupid things, just apologized. I am such an idiot. Felt like telling you all that ! sigh. I want to be Alc Free. Today is day 1.
