Wow. I'm really just overwhelmed, sitting here crying. I feel like everything is coming to a head, from my bipolar and my stint in the psych ward a bit ago, and now alcoholism and my intensive outpatient treatment plan. I just went for my assessment today. The idea of spending 3 hours a day, 4 days a week working on this, on top of my other appts, is just overwhelming. Lord grant me strength! And I don't even know in my heart if I can pull off sobriety. Forgive the ramble, just kinda falling apart.

Oh you can pull it off, IF you really want it. I quit drinking 20 years ago, I was a full blown alcoholic, drank everyday, did my share of drugs too. Once I decided it was enough, I was done. I went to 2 or 3 AA meetings a day for over a year. I no longer go to AA but it's great knowing it is there if I need it. I have no desire to drink, I don't miss it at all.

You can do this, but you have to do it for yourself not for anyone else and you really have to want sobriety or you fail. It's okay to relapse, just get back on the horse and start over. I believe in you, you got this!!!

I agree with Angel & HT. You can do this!

Cry, let it out as you need to. Feel free to post and vent. And remember that you can do this! It's may be hard work, but you said you wanted to get better. Just remember that it will be worth it. We are here for you!
