Ruth, Have you thought about Alanon? Is that the thing for family members of alcoholics? |

Alanon=Good Stuff. Same steps as AA, but you don't have to stop drinking. My ex is an alcoholic. One of the biggest reasons I left him. Once I mentioned to him that his drinking might be a problem. That didn't go over so well. 
Maybe I'll have to look into Alanon. Thanks.

for you too.
My brother had a recent run with the law, so he will be required to do some outpatient therapy, and breathalizer/urine checks too. I hope it will keep him out of trouble and get him back on track. |

I'm thinking this whole thing just isn't for me anymore. In the begining I was open to it, but now I don't see a point in it anymore. If I'm going to continue to feel the way I feel, I would rather be drunk and high and feel this way. I don't know. That's just how I've been feeling lately.

What are you doing different in your life other than just not drinking and getting high? |

What are you doing different in your life other than just not drinking and getting high? Just going to meetings and seeing a counselor. They out me on something for depression. I don't hang out with my friends because that would just lead to drugs and alcohol. I've been trying to find a hobby, but it doesn't seem t be working out. |

Well, are you doing anything like working the steps? Have you tried hanging with new sober friends? You've been clean/sober about 4 months now, this dosen't happen over night |

I'm not feeling any better. I really can't handle even everyday life. It feels like it's just getting worse. |

I'm not feeling any better. I really can't handle even everyday life. It feels like it's just getting worse. think the drink through. Anytime I feel like taking a drink I just have to remember where alcohol brings me. In my case usually jail. It makes for an easy decision not to drink. Life will always get worse if I drink. Answer the question. What are you doing different????? |
