I can certainly relate to you, both, and I should say, here, that I am now drinking, even as I write this.

Yes, Sabrina, what you're describing and currently going thru is very much what practicing (and even "dry" ones experience, as well, as told by "partlycloudy," above) alcoholics live and deal with on a daily basis.

I've been "in & out" of treatment--for a variety of different substances, but primarily alcohol--since 1985, and I am right now making arraignments to enter another "30 Day Rehab Program," here, locally, in Phoenix.

Yes, I have been thru more that, say, "two-dozen" detoxes and hospitals and institutions, but, when I honestly thought about my past I'd "only" been in three different "residential rehabilitation programs," so?

So, I think I'm going to "Give myself a break," and, also, this time ("mostly!") I'm willing to accept any consequences--and, there will be several awaiting me when I return home--and to finally; hopefully; get and stay completely SOBER for myself.

Thank you for starting this thread, Sabrina.
