hi

by every evening, i get an impulse to drink ...that too, i drink alone, and dont eat much which I should do with drinks, this leads to more and more drinks and then I happen to message people which I shouldnt do, things which I m not able to say to them when sober.next morning i feel guilty.

this is a vicious circle.


please help and guide.

So sorry to hear about your struggles (hugs if you accept). I can only imagine the pains you're going through the next day after waking up and realizing whom you called or texted and feeling the shame about what you might have said. Alcohol can make you loose all boundaries but this is not what you are, it's the viscious circle you're in and I hope very much that coming here will help you to get out of it. You deserve a better life, be able to look into the mirrow and be proud of yourself. This is a link for our self help guide alcohol & drug Use Help Online https://www.7cups.com/alcohol-drug-abuse/. I hope it will help. Please don't forget you can always connect with a listener 1:1 and talk about your challenges. Talking and other coping skills can help a lot with the urges. Sending you warm hugs.

Omg this was just like me!! Up until last night.

I spent the whole night crying, feeling unworthy, anxious, tired of my life. And that’s when I started to look for resources to get help and found this app.

The first step is already done, you’re reaching out!! And I’m proud of you so very much because I know the struggle ❤️❤️❤️

I would say distract yourself, make healthy food and drinks, etc but you probably know that already. So I will say be compassionate with yourself 🤗🤗 and if you have the urge to drink, come here.

Sending love!!
