Have you ever had something or someone in your life that you were scared to death to face? How afraid are you to face that situation? There is one thing many people that are addicted to alcohol are afraid to face and that is their addiction and the demons that lie deep with in them.
You have to be a strong and determined person to know how to face your inner demons. Many of us learn the hard way and then there are those that nip it in the bud before it gets out of hand. The sad part is that we don't know what to expect when we decide to get clean and sober and are scared to death to live without our crutch and addiction by our side. I know I was so afraid of how my body would react with the absence of alcohol and I am very sure every person with an addiction that wants to get sober feels the same.
We all have to learn to face our demons and addictions head on and not let anything or anyone stand in the way of us achieving long term sobriety. I know it sounds easier said than done, but if you want a better life for you and your family you have to face this addiction problem head on and full force.
First and foremost, you have to want to change your life and get clean and sober in order to face your demons. If you are not ready to stop drinking all together and completely then it will hard to face anything including your inner demons.
Be stronger than your addiction and stop letting your demons and addiction run and ruin your one and only life you have. Anything can be achieved in life including sobriety if you really want it bad enough.
Look at yourself, you are getting tired and more depressed each and everyday. You think you are nothing in this world we live and no one even cares about you so why not just drink alcohol to ease the pain. Don't run from your problems and turn to alcohol to try and solve them because I can tell you, "IT WILL NOT WORK", it only makes matters much worse.
So if you really want sobriety in your life again then I would advise you to stand up for who you are and stop drinking or using. Stand up to your inner demons and start living the clean life like you were meant to do.
So true, alchohol never solves anything. It just compounds the matter and makes things worse. However an occasional drink once in a while is good. As long as we don't let alchohol control our lives.
ReplyDeleteJennifer, Thank you for your comment and following my blog also. You are so right that alcohol solves nothing. Unfortunately I am one of the ones that can not have just one drink. That is where the problem is and for many other people that are addicted. so the answer to me is just not to drink alcohol at all. That is the safest way to handle it.
