@joli48, I know how frightening it is to go through this and I’m sorry for you, I realize that you want to enjoy having some drinks and I understand but with all due respect you’re on a fair amount of medication and that’s what I causing the blackout, it’s very dangerous to mix alcohol with medicine especially the ones that you’re taking. If it’s hard for you to stop drinking then you have to get help with that because I am very worried for you. All of the medication that you need affects your mind and so does alcohol, they are not compatible and if you don’t go for help with this the risk is definitely dangerous. I know that you want help because you’re here sharing this with others, this is a good start but you must find more help before you really get into serious trouble, there’s a lot of people here that know where you can get the information to get you back on track. Please don’t be hard on yourself, you’re a person in trouble and try to be strong and stay safe, I will pray for you and your recovery,

@frouke Thank u so much for your reply. Yes u are absolutely right about how i do wanna enjoy some drinks from time to time..I of course only intended to just have some wine, but of course it went completely out of control wen I went to that store. I remember doing the shots very clearly, which at home I wouldn't have done, but that goes to show how the wine clouded my judgment. I haven't had a drink in 3 weeks, but I would be lying if I say it didnt cross my mind on some days. I just try my best to think it through like how i would feel the next day, or what if I do or say something i would regret which i definitely would so I just stay busy or watch netflix n get hooked to a new series lol. But seriously..the whole one day at a time thing is very true. Especially after this last incident...it would be insane to think nothing would go wrong. I was never a daily drinker but the weekly or twice a week drinking I have done always result in regrets. I have been praying to God to help me change my ways with the alcohol n I'm taking this last incident as an answer. It could have been so much worse. Usually we would laugh at blackouts...like omg u said this or u did that but this time was nothing to laugh at. It scared me n also my whole family n that is just heartbreaking. It does help to talk about it...that's how I found this site. Thank u again for listening n replying n especially for keeping mr in your prayers...u are truly appreciated!!!!
