Re: I slipped again ... (tough love version)

So let me get this straight. You went on a booze and cocaine bender and now you feel awful.

I would have to respond: "This comes as a suprise to you?"

You say you are concerned that you are going to loose your job and become homeless.

I would have to respond: "That sounds highly likely"

You also ask if you will go on feeling like this forever.

I would have to resond: "No, sooner or later you'll OD, and you won't feel much after that".

Listen, far be it from me to rain on someone's on-line pity party, but get real. You did what you knew to be wrong, and your responce is a play for sympathy?

What you need to do is get into recovery and work at it like your life depended on it, which it does. You want my full sympthay, talk to me about how hard it is to stay sober, not how awful it feels when the high ends.
