mea_M Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 Gosh! I'm very disappointed in myself. I let to much stress get the best of me and I picked one up. One beer it all it took to lead to 8 of them. And I take low dose Xanax 3 times a day. Needless to say I got very sick and that is not a combo to mess with. I know I'll be ok getting back into the sobriety mindset, however, all my hard work it seems I blew! Never again. And to anyone struggling you can get sober and stay that way. And never mix a benzo with booze not only is it dangerous, it will depress the heck out of you. Mea

Author mea_M Posted August 10, 2015 Author Posted August 10, 2015 You're human. We slip up. We make mistakes. Forgive yourself, and start sobriety again this morning. Exactly thanks. God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His Will; That I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him Forever in the next. Amen. --Reinhold Niebuhr 2
angel.eyes Posted August 10, 2015 Posted August 10, 2015 How funny! I have only ever seen the first three lines. I hadn't realized it was part of a longer prayer. Thanks for that! 1

Tayla Posted August 11, 2015 Posted August 11, 2015 Those eight years are not lost. Draw upon them , its your insurance that you can regroup and move forward. Bless you for coming to your realization that sobriety is important to pursue. 1

Bless you for coming to your realization that sobriety is important to pursue. Thank you. It's ironic that it's step 10 has kept me sober and that's that step I lost it on. So what do I do, find a 10 step closed meeting yesterday and it worked perfectly for me.
