Transfer addiction resources please

Yep, it happened to me.

I started drinking in September and didn't stop.  Until today.  My last drink was last night and I am not drinking today.

I went to an AA meeting at noon and am going to spend my evening at an AA meeting from 5:30-9. 

I never EVER would have thought it would happen to me.  I lived with a recovering alcoholic for many years and went to a lot of open meetings with him.

But here I am trying to pick up a few peices that might be left of my miserable life.  I didn't self destruct only because of the alcohol but it was a big part of of it.

Tomorrow I can pick up my 24 hour chip and that is my plan.

If you think it can't happen to you think again.  And if anyone has any resources that might help me either understand why this happened or any ideas other than AA and therapy that might help me find a reason to even want to live again I'd like to see them.

I am really really hurting so please be nice.

I dont have any resources to offer, I only wants to hug your neck and say - if we are human, it *can* happen to us.

I am so proud on you for saying enough and saying enough all day.  I will be proud on you for your 24 hour chip tomorrow.  I know beneath your hurts you are proud on you too.

Much love, and a lot of healing hugs.
