My Struggle with Alcohol
Alcohol & Drug Addiction Support / by Emme0421

...See more I've been drinking since 18 years old, now 35 and struggling with quitting. I took a 2 week break recently and saught help. I relapsed yesterday. Haf too many and i fell down busted my forehead open had to get stitches. I've been let go from my job for drinking this past year and I regret it immensely. Have a new job now and have been absent twice because of going out all night and bad things happening to me. Got robbed in my own neighborhood while passed out on the street on my way home. Now I've got a busted face and im not allowed to work like this since I work at a nice hotel. I'm seeing a therapist for addiction. I'm determined to stop this time around, I literally hit rockbottom and realize drinking isn't worth it. But the demons in my head try to play with me, I need to find a way to mute them out without feeding them what they want... alcohol. My Struggle with this drug began early and I found comfort and numbness from things I needed to deal with, like my emotions with loss, grief, etc. I need to fight this and get better because I'm in danger of losing it all even my own life. Pray for me.
