I'm finally realizing that I'm becoming a total wreck. I let my emotions get to best of me and turn straight to alcohol. I have so much going wrong right now in my relationship with my boyfriend and he is a constant trigger. I'm so sad and frustrated. I picked up a white key tag for the first time 2 days ago and felt great but once my emotions come into play I go haywire and start drinking because I can't stand the way I feel. I feel stupid posting all of this but the truth is I feel very lonely....

Sometimes we have to abandon relationships if it affects our sobriety, remember people places and things. Sobriety must come before everything. After many disastrous relationships during my drinking life, I had given up. After 5 year's of sobriety I met my wife, who was then a sober alcoholic of 3 years and she had given up, as I had. We married, without any expectations of each other and spent 27 year's together. My wife passed away suddenly a few weeks ago, but I remained sober and I thank God for having allowed me to meet her. AA doesn’t guarantee you anything, no more than life does, but it will give you back your life and what we do with it is up to us.

So true drinking caused the end of a 10 yr relationship. When it was over I drank even more. Thought that's all life was about. Man was I wrong. I began to see life with a set of new eyes. Bills were paid on time and got way more rest. Im so glad I made the right choice.
