Seriously. Go to a meeting, you dont have to talk but being around others in your same boat helps

Yeah been there. Covid shut down AA meetings. I'll look to see if they are back up. Yeah, I'm probably the guy that needs to go to the hospital, again. Thanks!

Stay strong. Write down your motivations for quitting and where you want to be in life 1 month, year, 5 years. That exercise of writing your thoughts down helps gain some clarity.

You have value, remember that. There are lurkers in your same position that are reading this and are seeing that they aren’t alone in the struggle. Just by having the balls to post this you inadvertently help them, even if only a little.

Naltrexone Brand name: Vivitrol Description It can help prevent relapses into alcohol or drug abuse. It really helped my friend who woke up every day with vodka and drank till 3am. He went to meetings everyday and still does. He has been sober for 2 1/2 years and is now leading meetings. Good luck, I will pray for you.

SMH, they closed down AA meeting so guys like you can not get help, but booze is essential so alcoholics don't go cray cray. Peak clown world detected.

As a former alcoholic myself, AA meetings would only make me want booze more after listening to sappy stories and religious bullshitc designed to take advantage of suffering people.

Seriously, just smoke some weed instead. It's safer than booze and only half a bowl gets me more interested in daily activities. I haven't smoked pot in a month, but I wish I did as it'd help with getting me to do more daily chores.
