Relapsed, damaged my car pretty badly. No one got hurt fortunately but I feel down and broken, again. Why can’t I stick with sobriety it’s killing me

If we reach a high enough vaccination percentage and nothing changes, what’s the next step? Does the government then start forcing boosters?

Those of you who’ve gotten in shape: how do you make health & fitness a priority? I’m in year four of this job and realize I need to make some changes (aka I’ve put on 50 pounds since I started this job)

Dyslexia! After having our kindergartener son tested (privately) related to ADHD, we were told he may have dyslexia too (which would explain why he struggles so much with phonics but is amazing at sight words). He has a very high IQ. As a voracious reader, I am finding myself unexpectedly distraught that something that I have loved so much will be such a struggle for him, and worrying that it will affect his motivation and may steer him away from things he may otherwise love.
Tips/Commiseration?

I can seem to find a Pfizer booster anywhere in the city, anyone know where I might find one

My mom is mid-50s and has started having what appear to be mini blackouts. Her face contorts like she is laughing or crying, and she is unresponsive for 5-10 seconds. When we ask her what is wrong, she has no idea what we are talking about and no memory of the event.

Any idea what this might be or how to even begin the diagnostics?

If we mandate masks for US citizens who are fully vaccinated why don’t we check Covid status of illegals and prevent them from entering? Heck, they shouldn’t be allowed to enter anyway!!

I am in the process of IVF due to my husband's male factor infertility. I am so grateful for the benefits that EY provides and wanted to know if there is any consideration for reevaluating those benefits? We know that IVF is incredibly expensive and for some of us, having children is a top priority. Does anyone know where or how we can petition for enhanced or shared benefits? I have ideas.

Girlfriend has very obvious high functioning anxiety and body image issues that she admits but thinks she doesn’t need therapy or medication and that reading self-help books will help her. It’s not changing in the last several years and it’s impacting our relationship. Anyone have experience with their SO dealing with untreated anxiety? I know I can’t control her but would like to express my feelings without sending her into a spiral. For context, I’ve been in therapy for 12 months and medicated

Has anyone talked to a therapist or professional about being unemployed? At this point I feel like it's making me depressed. Are there other unemployment support groups out there?

Last year I moved to a new city to be with my girlfriend after she took a new job in that city. One year later I realized this was the unhappiest year of my adult life. I don’t know if it’s because of my relationship or because I’m in a new city with less friends/social life. 27M

Ghosting - does anyone ever really benefit? Candidate or Company - Why not just say "no thank you/not interested" and close the loop? Seriously, are there any pros to ghosting?

Something wrong with our Desi mentality ?
I am sure most of the people are single here, still it’s too empty and dull, what’s wrong with us 😂😂

Looking for a place in Fidi that's somewhat reasonable in price and I came across 33 Gold. It has weird reviews but they seem old, so I'm not sure if this is entirely accurate as of currently. Location seems nice though since it's near the Seaport. Anyone have experience there?

Any technical engineers interested in co-founding a side project? I have an idea in mind (software product) and need a technical partner to work on it with. My background is on the commercial side of B2B SaaS (currently at a unicorn startup).

Is it possible to be diligent and precise and get the job done without taking every task so seriously? I feel like I treat certain tasks like the whole world depends on it, and it makes me feel stressed at times. For context, I am a 3rd year commercial litigation associate at a mid-sized firm in NYC.

I recently tried quitting everything last Sunday, with drew all last week and then relapsed Friday, Saturday and Sunday worst withdrawals I ever had (cold sweats, shaking, wasn’t sure I would survive). I’m through the worst of it now but any advice? Thought about rehab but can’t stop work. This is probably my 9th time trying to go sober during the pandemic. I live alone so the isolation with the pandemic has extremely escalated my usage to the point of about a bottle of a day on weekdays

If I want to go to an AA meeting do I just show up? What happens my first time? Do I have to quit drinking before I go to one/ be committed to quitting before going? How many people are at these? Is there a time/day of week that is best to go? How often do people in AA have to go to meetings? Does it cost anything once you join? I just can’t shake the feeling that my luck is going to run out. Not a daily drinker, but blackout when I do. Thx.

I have been alcohol free for 2 months but I use MMJ to focus. My dr prescribed MMJ because I don’t want pharma drugs like Adderall. Is there a place for me in AA or is it all (sobriety) or nothing?

Any tips for staying sober doing this job? I’m a new analyst, and I’m already feeling the pressure to drink. There’s no way that I’d have this job if I didn’t get sober and I’m just trying to cont

My sister is turning 30 in rehab this week, and I want to send her a birthday gift that she'll appreciate, but also that might be helpful to her as she transitions into a new sober life.

Any recommendations?

This time last year I knew I needed to stop drinking, but I couldn’t. This year, though, I’m putting my health first. Starting day 2 of sobriety and hope to keep it up. Thanks to this group for all the support and encouragement shown to those of us struggling with such powerful addictions.

I’m over a month sober from alcohol. I’m not in a program or anything and I’m just keeping myself busy. It’s been hard some days especially being young and single. But I’m doing what I can and improving myself slowly

I am an elementary art teacher. I am also in the national guard coming off a recent 2 year deployment my marriage is struggling, my school was unsupportive, and my 3 kids are having issues with me leaving. I took to alcohol for about a year it was a bottle of whiskey per day. I've been sober 4 months now but none of the other issues went away and it gets rough. Sometimes it seems like it would be easier to go back or be gone.

Today was day 3 without Adderall (1st work day) & I felt extremely tired and sleepy all day. Any ideas on how to make my detox go easier? My 1 cup of Starbucks cold brew was useless lol

I've struggled with excess for as long as alcohol has been a part of my life. I'm at a low point after having too much on Sunday, being unproductive on Monday, and barely sleeping. It's this moment that makes me want to finally change. But I know when I'm feeling better, I'll think I can do this all again and next time it'll be fine. I've read tips here for being better and will try my hardest. Tia for listening.

I think this whole quarantine thing has helped me... I used to drink like a fish on Thursday on the plane rides home and on the road.. it was all free booze
