Well, Rob, all I know to say to ya is "change it". You have the ability to change anything you want. It will require a little surrendering, a little humbling yourself, a little listening and a little work. It's up to you.
Nothing changes, if nothing changes.
You're in my prayers.
Love and hugs.

hi, Rob,, I'm glad you checked in. I'm sorry that you're having a tough time, and hope you hang in there doing the best you can, and accepting the things we cannot change. Progress and not perfection, eh? A day at a time, a moment at a time, we'll get through it with our Higher Power at the helm through the storms. Have patience with yourself as you do the best you can,, k?
love in recovery,
amanda

Hey Rob, We are here to listen if you want to share about what's going on. Maybe we could share some experience, strength and hope with you. This too shall pass...And we can start our day over anytime we choose.
I know u were hopeful in cutting down the drinking with a goal of quiting.
I assume that didn't work so well. The first time I was able to quit I got on my knees and ask GOD to please get me to AA. It worked for years then I walked out the doors. Eventually I drank. It took 7 more years of the crap to get back. My cutting down and selfcontrol didn't work.
Things get better without the drink. When we hurt enough we change. IT GETS REAL BAD FOR SOME AND I WON'T GO THERE.
POST AS MUCH AS U WOULD LIKE. WERE HERE TO TRY TO HELP EACH OTHER
Was thinking about your week-end, and thinking about how this morning, I have all of today, to get my week-end right.
I spent the day yesterday, doing things I like to do, and today I can spend doing the things that need to get done. Bills, housework, (not my favorites). It seems like I'm been in this position so many times, they say Sunday is suppose to be the Day of Rest. And I always find a little humor in the fact that Saturdays are my kind of Play days, doing things I like, and then on the day of Rest, I have a lot of work to do. I think I have to chalk it up to being dyslexic or something like that.
I hope this morning, well its not morning where you are? right. I hope today is a better day. Stay in touch with us, we love hearing from you.
