Had to reset my counter again after getting weepy drunk last night and lashing out at my best friend for reasons I can't remember. I can't seem to control myself lately and I'm out of ideas. Depression is a bitch. Sorry for the rant but I needed to vent and no one is awake around here yet.

Hang in there buddy. This 24 hours is a new 24 hours. Dont let the past keep you from doing what you should do today.
thank you for helping to remember that feeling... i had at least 100 resets, for years and years. I made sure to try something new each time though so that even if i failed again i learned something. Many times i felt like there can't possibly be something new to try anymore, but there always was... zoom meeting really help me fell less lonely even though i rarely speak in them and refuse to do any 12 step work as I have all the power in the world over alcohol as long as i don't put it in my mouth. And that's a choice i make everyday.
The days you didn't drink were not lost. Focus on today.
It happens. Rant away! I’m awake. :)
Excited to get to the gym and spend time with my beautiful children that have a swole and sober dad! IWNDWYT
