    What is wrong with me

    I have been AF free for quite some time and feel good, but today I got another call of a friend who has passed away. My stress level is beyond belief with my son who has decided school is not important. So after months of being AF I think have a drink. Just for today!!!! Tomorrow I will go back to not drinking. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME!!!

        Time, I'm sorry for your loss (yet again). Nothing is wrong with you. That's just the way it is. It is our knee jerk reaction. You KNOW that. You know that a drink won't ease your feelings about loosing your friend. A drink won't make your son change his mind about his study habits. Focus on you and what is good for you. It is the only thing you can control. PM me if you need to chat, OK?

              I wish a drink could erase the pain. I know it doesn't. I don't think anything does. I do know a drink won't really help. I felt the urge to drink yesterday. I was so mad. I didn't and today I am glad. Hang in there sweetheart. xoxo rudemama

                There is nothing wrong with you Time. For so many years we used alcohol to deal with EVERYTHING--especially stress and sad and uncomfortable situations. I'm afraid to even think about how I will handle my first really stressful situation sober. I'm willing to bet the thought of drinking and smoking crosses my mind. It's not "normal" but it's is how are brains are wired. The important thing is that we use our knowledge that the drink won't help to work through the stress other ways.

                I'm so sorry for your loss.

                Hang in there! :l

                      Time 2, I am so sorry for your loss. I know it hurts.......remember, after the shock and grief, there will come a time, when you will celebrate your friends life.

                      As for your thought of Alcohol......It is called ADDICTION, no rhyme or reason to it. As they say in AA, it is cunning and baffling.

                      Please be willing to Feel Your Life, all of it! This is what heals us. This is what gives us the substance to live a sober life. This is what sets us Free!

                          Unfortunately, the truth hurts. I don't want to be an alkie anymore either. But I am.

                          We can do this. We can beat this thing. Many have and many more will.

                          Love,
