In reply to What is wrong with me???, posted by just so sad on February 2, 2005, at 10:27:30
That's a loaded question, "What's wrong with me?" and it can mean so many things to so many people. Maybe you could try a more positive approach to yourself and see what's right with you and think about what you want out of life and how alcohol may be getting in the way of your dreams??
Making a decision to never have another drink in your life is HUGE. I know you've heard it before, but just think about today and what you can plan to do to not drink. I know what you mean when you describe how it eats at you all day long. I still feel that sometimes and wish I could just have a drink to quit thinking about it!
Urges pass, I swear they do and finding other, more helpful ways to deal with them (plan on rewarding youself, maybe) can lessen them.
Someone told me once that you have to believe in yourself, you have to believe you can do it.
best wishes,
antigua
