i use painkillers and booze as a almost fuel, i need to get stuff done and i lost some sort of drive i had a long time ago.
looking for answers where did it go, and how do i get it back?
these are nt in either of these things
Hey Wallja all alcohol done was slowly transfuse your confidance away and it became your confidance then it started on your emotions, and the mixture of that and pain kllers has just dulled your responses. The only part that gets more active is our addictive thinking, addiction and self doubt.
Your confidance is still there as well as all the emotions and they are ready to fight for the real you to surface one step at a time, one day at a time. Have you got any AA supports around you? As this can aid the rise back to who we are meant to be in such an informative way and hey Walja start smiling as addiction doesn't like happy people. Keep posting.

Hello Wallja
I am no expert on painkillers or alcohol but I probably could be. One thing I know about booze, it is an anti depressant and also a solvent for some such as myself.
Alcohol as a solvent. It removes stains from carpets it removes carpets it removes the homes those carpets were in, it removes pay packets, jobs, relationships, families, your health. Then it removes any self-worth or dignity we may have.
Alcohol as alcoholism is a double edge sword it tells you on one side that everythings going to be o/k while on the other side it is killing you. I was a prisoner to it for a long time. I couldnt talk to people, leave my front door to check the mail or go to work unless I had alcohol in my system. Before I was guided to AA I was an empty shell not knowing how to live or die. Its a very lonely place to be.
But Wallja its not like that today. Today I am in my dreams awake I am doing the things I could only dream of before I took my next drink of alcohol and they were gone.
I was given a brand new life .A daily reprieve from my disease. And I can maintain that as long as I do a few things each day. It was and has been very hard at times especially in the beginning. But its been a great journey for me. And its there for you as well.
I have back and hip problems but have been able to manage that without painkillers thus far. I guess what I am trying to say anythings possible in Gods world if you do the footwork.
With the booze. Have you tried AA they may be able to help you. If you want to keep drinking thats your business but if you want to stop drinking thats there business. Wallja theres always hope. . Keep posting and if anyone can help .I am sure they will. If you have any questions just ask.
God Bless
