Just got a DUI.

Olivia,

There are tons of love on forums and the internet.  I care for this situation and your dilemma, and I care for what you are going through.  I drove with alcohol in my system to help save a suicidal friend.
 
I have pissed majority of this website off, for standing up to frustration in my own life, but there is one thing I won't get frustrated or give up on, this website.  I posted this last August, when I first joined this site.  
 
You can't change what has just happened, you can't change that "ticket" the law.  There are a lot of people on this site who have been, or could have been in your predicament.  
 
Olivia,
this is what you're in, and don't need anyone to tell you about what you should or shouldn't done.  I am not a person who is willing to be quick to judge. 
 
 Much Love,

I just got a DUI and I hate myself. I am so sad and disappointed and scared. My drinking has been escalating and I even got arrested on disorderly conduct a few months ago. Now I got a DUI and I am just....so lost and sad. I can't believe things reached this level.

Support or commiseration right now would mean a lot. I know what I did was wrong so reminding me of that is not necessary. I'm lucky to be alive and no one else is hurt. But now is legal fees, possible jail, job issues. I'm just so overwhelmed and sad. Any advice or support would mean so much. 

-Olivia
