Friend is missing

My friend went to Vegas and went on a massive record breaking bender. Called me from the hospital with a busted face and incoherently drunk even thought he had a flight that night. This was yesterday afternoon.

Last night he texted me that his flight was cancelled and then radio silence. Went all day today without hearing from him until his dad reached out— apparently my buddy lost his phone and didn’t show up for the new flight he rebooked for this afternoon. Last he heard from him was this morning and he found out he didn’t make it to his flight by calling the airline. No one’s heard from him all day. He was sober for a few months prior to this and so he’s drinking like he used to in peak CA with the lowest tolerance so he’s been pretty incoherent this whole time. It’s been like 4 days of this.

I’m so worried. I don’t know what to think. His family’s filed a missing persons report. I’ve checked the jail records. Just needed to vent. I really hope we find him cause my brain is going worst case scenario

Trying to make it for a substantial amount of time for once. My longest streak has been around 50 days and I really wanna make it to at LEAST 120. Wish me luck

It’s been surprisingly fine, even though I’m unemployed and living with my parents lol. I’m too old for this and despite the bone-deep shame of being 30 and living with my parents, I’m grateful they’ve been supporting me through my… alcohol journey in the past year haha. I haven’t done a program or anything just therapy and a LOT of introspection

I had my first craving today, but I just had to remind myself that drinking just weighs me down. If I ever want to move forward (and move out ) I need to let go of it

Anyways, some late night thoughts. I hope you all have a wonderful week
