Worst feeling in the world
Permalink  
 

Last night went to a meeting and the subject was on slips.  I was sober from '86 to the summer of '92, I lost my sobriety because I just couldn't accept that one drink was to many.

Anyway... one person told a quote I hadn't heard in years and it is so true.

"There is nothing worse in the world then a head full of AA and a stomach full of booze."

I heard it was a "belly full of booze" and boy did I know that to be true with two years worth of steady relapses. Worst feeling in the world is right.

Yep, heard that one more than a few times. Pretty much all my friends and most of how I go about things come from AA now. Half of my furniture was given to me freely by people in the fellowship when I started out and had to move. I kinda know how crappy I would feel if I just abandoned the path I've been on and started drinking. I would be a worse wreck than I've ever been in my entire life. I would be living against my morals now, cutting myself off from my friends, and also figuratively slapping in the face anyone and everyone who tried or did help me. That's just my take.

I heard/hear it also....  It doubled my guilt, remorse and shame.
Been there, done that and don't want to go back.

me neither, am chuckling as I write as am going through a few difficult situations at the moment, however by not drinking, I will not convert those difficulties which HP can help me with to disasters, I have lived my life whether going well or not by disasters, averted disasters, potential disasters, impending disasters, imagined disasters, which all were created by drinking, so here goes sobriety for a change.
