Today was not the best day. It was a day of sadness that accompanied a bad hangover. This is the story: I went out to a bar with my good friend after a long week of working hard on school work. We go to the bar in an attempt to just have a chill night of darts and drinking. But I wasn't going to have a happy ending to my night. After becoming intoxicated I could not find my bag after we were trying to head home. I was able to find it but it was too late. In my drunken state I called 911. I have a long history with anxiety and depression and after having a good time out at the bar, my mood swiftly changed and I instantly felt not only depressed but extremely suicidal. I went to the hospital, slept there and came back to my town having missed both of my classes today.
The worst part of this story is that I was actually starting to feel less depressed and anxious this week, and this event makes me feel that I've regressed in my mental progress about 500 steps back.
The best part of this story is that I chose to seek help instead of acting on my scary emotions. This blog is about personal emotional struggles, addiction and alcoholism, and the journey of enjoying life and making positive choices to do so. I want to live and be happy! Don't we all? Please share your thoughts with me also. Mutual support and understanding is one of the great aspects of human connection, and Its time to connect. Thank you
