This might be outta left field (far left, of course lol) but I’m hurting real bad right now and need some fine fellows to lend moral support. I lost my fiance four years ago and still struggling with the damn bottle(and really don’t want to anymore). What is the most positive, uplifting thing you can say to someone struggling on getting back to equilibrium? I need some solidarity right now <3

    Oh yeah, I know. I wasn’t aware about the benzos though, I know that benzos and alcohol are the two drugs that can kill you detoxing. I just got released from the hospital five days ago. Once they release you they recommend weening (if you’re not going to a facility for detox after release from the hospital) I’m just about done weening, I’m just still going over the last hump right now. I’ve had to ween myself a few times, but yeah, it’s fucking tough. If it wasn’t for the fact that I have my dog and nobody to look after him in this town I probably would have done a longer medically supervised stint. But unfortunately I had to do it this way since I have to also take care of him. He’s basically my kid and there’s no way for me to leave him somewhere sadly :'(
