No.
I've done some dumbass stuff while drinking, but what's done is done.
Control your drinking, don't let your drinking control you.

You will get over the guilt thing after a few weeks. If you keep it up ( not drinking) your lifestyle, people you associate with, and nightly routines will all begin to slowly change--probably for the better. It did for me.
I quit 13 years ago. The best part is always being in control of your situation at all times.

I got sober through aa....felt lots of guilt and shame. It's normal. Drinking so much causes us to not feel, including not feeling guilty. Once you stop drinking, all of those years of shitty behavior is piled on at one time. Like someone else said, making amends to others makes it better. Most importantly, make amends to yourself. Oh, and don't ask the ot for advise on this stuff.

Stopped drinking on March 8th of this year. I was getting too drunk at times, always trying to finish the bottle no matter what. But I was just hiding behind the booze.
This was perfectly stated.

Nope, my drunken antics are pretty entertaining. But if they took over my life, then I'd definitely have to re-evaluate things, for sure.

Not guilt just real bad behavior that hurt people's feelings , and yes I went to AA. That worked for me. I changed my whole way of life
If you trying to quit talk to people who are sober, stay busy, get involved in things you like
Do not get hungry angry lonely or tired

Paige makimg sense more and more everyday is a sign, I know it. The end is near.

I haven't had alcohol for a few years now, and I don't regret a thing about my past, but then again, I wasn't an alcoholic, or a beligerent drunk. Drinking and partying with friends was fun. A lot of great memories.

Listen to Iona. Feelings return and are amplified. Good and bad. I felt a lot of remorse for time wasted and things done and not done, but at the end of the day I forgave myself. Making amends is a long way down the road, so just do the next right thing so you don't have any new regrets tomorrow.
I can stay in the wreckage of my past and keep wrecking things, or seek forgiveness and try to make life better for those around me. It's a daily decision.

I'm amazed you get this much attention. You look like a common skank.
And you have no intelligence or humor to make up for it.

Hey dude, please stop torturing yourself by reading my unfunny and unintelligent posts. I'm not even attractive
Artie, that's great advice, as is Iona's and others. I'm going to try to stop letting the guilt get to me.
There's just things that I keep wondering how it'd be if I hadn't fricked it up by drinking and I can't change or fix it.
Now that I think about it. I have never been one to dwell on things I can't change. I shouldn't start now

even if that is true, which it isn't, it's bad form

Paige, I quit 4 months ago. This is the longest I've been without drinking since before I started, 26 years ago.
I was drinking to black out 6 nights a week for the last 6 or 7 years. On May 16th I came home pretty wasted. I talked to my wife and told her I was quitting. I had had this conversation with her before but had never followed through. The next morning, I woke up and actually remembered what I had told her and what I had told myself. Haven't had a drink since.
It is really hard. I am going through the same things that you are going through. Just know that everyday gets a little easier.
I have started back doing the things that I used to do. Riding my bike, enjoying my work, etc. I am much happier overall. Sounds like you are doing this too.
Keep on keeping' on! You can do it!
