    Starting Over

    I drank kind of a lot today. I ordered some Kudzu from MWO. It really works for me. I'm also going to run to the health food store tomorrow for a bottle to tide me over.
    I don't want to drink, and I want to be thin and healthy, but I have some real stresses in my life right now.
    So tomorrow, I will just start over, I guess.

    Good for you Lila! The Kudzu was a huge help to me when I was stopping! Also the L-Glut! You will get there, just keep working on it!

            Thanks you all for posting. Yes, there really is power here. It sounds so lame, but, yesterday I was so nervous and upset about something that I had a beer around noon to take the edge off - and well, it went from there.
            I guess it is something I do for stress, and also because - this is lame - but maybe just something to do???
            I am in a limbo place in my life right now, and I keep waiting for things in my life to be settled, like with my divorce - like I 'need' a few beers to get me thru this time. But I just get a higher tolerance and all my clothes are a little bit tightish....
            I am re-reading the book, now and will set up my CD player for the hypnosis tapes.
            I mean, the beer has to be replaced with something.

              Hi Lila,

              This is a great place to be when you need support. No one is here to judge, so keep reading and posting!

                Lila,

                Sounds like you know what you need to do. I was in limbo for months - moving back to the states, waiting for house to be built, not working. I understand drinking during those times - drank heavily for 4months and quit for 5.

                Good luck.

                  Good Morning, Lila,
                  If we wait for life to be calm to stop drinking, we will never stop!! I have learned this the hard way, time and time again!! No matter how many times we prove to ourselves that alcohol does not take the edge off, does not make anything better and does not hold up to the fantasy, we still drink it and want to believe in it! I am so grateful to not drink any more!!

                  You are right, though, you do need to replace AL, with something else, when you need to take the edge off.......it is a mind game! I make a different pitcher of herbal iced tea every day. It is refreshing and I tell myself that it takes the edge off and is calming and you know what......It is!!

                  Just keep working on this.........you are on the right track!

                      Thank you all so much for posting. I even had some synchronicity today. I don't feel strong or anything. I guess there will never be an optimal time to stop, will there. I am a Believer, so I will get divine help and help from this site.
                      I feel strange writing this. Goodbye, Summit baby, goodbye Merlot buddy.
                      On to the next thing.
