Well , first time , I will try to stop alcohol. Started drinking since age 14. I am heavy drinker 4-7 days a week. Some how manage to be successful 5 years in the navy, receive a bachelors and masters degree, over achiever at work. But I am an alcoholic, and I hate it! I hate the feeling of needing alcohol to “be happy” , my life revolves around it, family, holidays, vacations, stress, etc. I’ve obviously had bad thoughts, bad intentions, bad incidents, drunk and driving risking others life, fights etc. my love ones always stick around
Welcome Chuy
This is a great sober community to get and give support.
I finally got sick and tired of planning my whole life around my next drink. Everything I use to do revolved around my next drink. I’m so free of that now it’s incredible.
I came on here often. I read a lot. Eventually I started going to meetings. I kept an open mind to what works for others. And I asked for help and support. I could not do it alone.
It’s the best feeling in the world. Enjoying life on life’s terms. If I just don’t pick up that first drink. The most important one. I can stay sober.
Have a good read around. Join in when you’re comfortable. If you got any questions just ask.
6 days of freedom from the insanity! Right on & it only gets better, shipmate. Sure there are shit days but it doesn’t mean we need/have to drink or use.
I’m really glad you’re here and welcome aboard! See ya around
Congrats on your day 6!!
One day at a time … you achieved a lot in life, so you will also achieve that new goal not to drink!
Think positive, its a bumby way but we will not give up. If we fall we stand up and try again until it works.
Have a good day!
