Hello everyone! New to this app and trying to stay sober. I don’t drink every day but I have huge problems with not knowing my limit, which causes me to embarrass myself, black out, cause drama, etc etc. All of this has taken a severe hit to my mental health. The guilt, shame, and anxiety eat at me for WEEKS after, and I don’t want to cause my loved ones and myself anymore strife. I don’t want to lose people who are important to me because I can’t get this problem under control. People tend to look at me crazy and buy me drinks anyways when I say I want to stay sober because some don’t see it as a problem but I do, and in the past I’ve never been good at staying true to my decision to stay sober so hopefully by finding community here and staying consistent I can change my life for the better. I know this is long and hopefully I’m not trauma dumping, but if you’re reading this, thank you for being a small part of my journey!
