Title: not getting any better am I
Post by: alex1973 on February 11, 2013, 10:20:17 AM

what was the f***ing point in doing any of this when its doing no f***ing good??

Still depressed as badly as I was a year ago. Yes I bloody well feel like having a great big bloody drink and sod it.

Sick of antabuse and knitting groups and self help groups and medication and all that other rubbish that does no good

thanks Sharon, I consider you one of my very few true friends. Even though I kept busy did all sort yesterday, jogging, typing my mates essay work for him, went to Aikido etc I still today feel like drinking again. I am so alone and so fed up and down.

I've cut my drink consumption in the year and feel better for it - honest. Takes a while though and I can have one or two and no more instead of finishing off the bottle.   Booze will make it worse.    Have a good moan here instead1

its been a problem since 1995, my drinking has. I have tried a few periods of soberiety but always come back to booze. This time I decided to quit for good but this whole last week I have been very tempted to drink again. Just seem to be running on a treadmill and getting nowhere in life with anything

Alex, sorry no wonderful words of wisdom but not drinking for a week is a positive even if it doesn't feel like it  %^%
