32 year old Male, moved to wales - relapsed three days ago.

POChrist · Jul 23, 2024

Hello, I am a 32 year old male.. who moved to wales to get away from a bad lifestyle I was sober for 2 years pretty much, however 2 or 3 days ago I relapsed.. I lost myself and went to a bar. This isn't something I want to do again but the guilt is throwing me off the edge, and anxiety of doing it.. I just feel so awful, and could really use some good friends if anyone is close to Wales that would be good too..
Kind Regards.. and sorry, just a bit of a cry for help.

I will pray for you, and do recommend that you talk to a priest or pastor about this. Plus, some bars, if you request, can allow you to self exclude yourself from their establishment.

I'm not sure where I can find a priest or pastor near me.. I walked to my closest church and it's always shut. Thank you very much for the prayers and kind thoughts, this is definitely something I do not want to ever repeat, but I will take the self exclusion into consideration. Thank you.

You are welcome, brother. We are living in the End Times, brother as churches close their doors more often then not it seems. Jesus told us to help others as Christians, and yet so many churches lock their doors nowadays. But yes, talk to the bars, and ask to be trespassed if you ever enter a bar again. They can do that for you.

Thank you, yes I know. It really makes me sad, as the rare occasion that I go to reach for help the doors are always shut. It makes me feel even more alone you know..
I appreciate your help again, I hope you have a lovely week..

We all stumble at times ... the Lord is always there to forgive and help us begin again and help to us overcome. It's a tough battle and the Lord knows that. The past can't be changed no sense feeling guilty over it ... accept the forgiveness from the Lord and walk forward in Him.

Stay out of bars ... period! Don't hang around people who drink and don't buy alcohol.

Nice, is it nice that area? people seem pretty friendly here so far. Might be the weather at the moment though

Feel free to message me if you'd like maybe we can talk more then, sorry I don't know how to do it.
