So desperate to stop drinking

I’ve wasted so many years going from one relapse to another - so full of fear and self-loathing a sad way for anybody to live their lives - a condition that’s baffling my family and friends don’t understand why I continue to want to destroy anything and everything that’s good in my life…Glad to be on here guys!

Welcome back! Be active, it helps. I spent as much time here as I did drinking…probably a little more to be honest

I suffered tremendously from alcoholism. I do not suffer a bit due to being sober.

Yes, thanks so much, I know how wonderful life can be when I’m sober it’s a joy to wake in the morning with a clear head and having the memory recall to know what I did the night before. Thank you once again for your support :+1:

Welcome back Graham! you can 100% do this

Welcome back! I see you’ve gotten lots of great advice already. I would just add that sobriety is yours for the taking so be aggressive and grab it, hang on and stop at nothing. The ride is worth it🙂

Welcome back. I have a list of things I’ve had to kick, and it’s been a road of progress and regression until I finally made it where I’m at now. All you can do is keep trying until you make it. If one path doesn’t work, try another, then another, and then another. Best of luck and hope to see more of you.
