Please pray for me, please

[tiredmom]

I finally got over it, and called my p-doc for an appointment. (I have BP, etc.) I'm going in to see him in an hour. IF I don't chicken out and reschedule.

BUT-- I drank so much beer yesterday, I'm kinda hung over, and still feel sorta lightheaded. I have a problem with drinking also-- something I wanted to address with him in conjunction with my meds, and wanting to be off of them.

I really need help. I have no idea what kind. I hate myself, I hate taking meds, and I really don't want to drink. It's never anything heavier than beer, but it's gotten bad nonetheless.

Now, if only I could get up the gumption to call my pastor, and get some counseling or something....I really am a damn mess, and I hate it. I really do love the Lord, and had the privilege of seeing my girls baptized last weekend-- and yet, their momma is falling apart.

Lord, PLEASE, please help me. Anyone who reads this, PLEASE pray for me. A lot. Thanks.

Dearest Tiredmom,
thank you so much for your honesty. I too was where you are at for a year & 1\2 and June 3rd my husband drove me down to a detox center. I too just drank "the light stuff" and yet it ended up consuming me. This last week and a half that I have been home has not been easy. I am grateful for a praying family and sites like this where prayer (which I SO believe in !) is a main stay. I am going moment by moment trusting that our Heavenly Fathers promises are true. I had an appointment today with my PD and he has put me on different meds and encouraged me to seek all the support I can get. I can hardly wait till I am at the point where I can help others.
Praying for you

Dear Lord,
I am praying for my sister here whom has had the courage to ask for help. Please calm her nerves and go with her by her side to these appointments. Be her strength when she feels weak and give her peace. Help her feel supported here, at her church, and with the psychitrist. And let her know she is never alone with this.

Praying for you.

Father, please hear the pray of your daughter and acknowlegde the confession of her heart. Lord, minister to each need she may have both physical and emotional. Father you word states that in Christ we are free indeed and I thank You Lord for the freedom given to TiredMom. Lord may You grant her grace to face each trial, temptation and urge, strengthen her inner man that she may walk in faith, boldness and liberation. Father I declare in the mighty name of Jesus, that she is not bound by addiction, fear, regret or self hate but rather is whole in Christ having a spirit of power and love and soundness. In Jesus name, Amen.

Let us know how you're doing.

Remember that Jesus said "where 2 or more are gathered, there I am in the midst"

I too suffer from bipolar disorder, and i know that at times it can be a real struggle just to get through the day

At the begining of the day I declare the day to the Lord for whatever may happen and whatever he brings be to his glory.

Remember also, that Jesus does not want us to be unhappy, because that makes him also unhappy.


do not feel ashamed about asking for help I know at times it may fell as though it's a weakness, but believe me you will stronger every day that you do ask for his help and remember, I am sure that there are people praying for you. You are now in my prayers and thoughts.

Bless you heaps and take care of yourself.

God Bless

Hi. I suffer from Bipolar Disorder and am a recovering alcoholic. I thought I might relate a bit of my story to you with the hope that the information may help to encourage you.

I was diagnosed with Bipolar 15 years ago. I started drinking shortly thereafter.

For years, I was taking medication and drinking, or drinking instead of taking the medication. These two afflictions feed off of one another in a very big and bad way.

When you are saturated with alcohol, your body passes the medications right through you with no possibility of helping.

It doesn't matter if you're drinking beer or moonshine, your condition will be negatively affected as a result.

It would be beneficial for you to be honest with your doctor. Asking for help was the most difficult thing I've done, but a good honest talk with your doc could be the key to regaining control of your world.

Good luck! Be strong! We're here behind you!
God bless!
