    Did I forget to say thanks?!

    Hey everyone,
    Just wanted to give you an update on my progress,

    I'm on day 18, really pleased and feel great, not craving at all but thinking the CAMPRAL may have something to do with that, the wonderdrug!

    Day by day my life seems to be coming together and I just feel so thankful to be free of AL and grateful to all of you for your support in getting here!

    I've got a new job and met someone really nice and even managed to go for coffee with them (not the usual 'drink' or couple then "oh my god what the hell am I going to do with this insane drunk woman")

    I know I will always be an alcoholic and will always have to have a certain level of 'guard up' but I feel empowered and that...

    ..."I can get by with a little help from my friends!"

    Much love and thanks,
    Manisha xoxo

      Thats great posting. I almost hate to say that most, if not all, AL sponsors, etc. say don't start a new relationship for at least a year from the time you feel comfortable with yourself. I'm sure thats hard, maybe impossible, but give it LOTS OF THOUGHT, anyway, OK. We love you, whereever you are, but it's easier in some places. And remember, at some point, no one is going to care what your doing or what you want to do. Do it NOW. OK!

        Ethanol is a toxic chemical, why would I drink it?

            Thanks guys, for the positive responses, it really means alot!

            Ruby, thanks for the advice, hmm, I hadn't even looked it as a new relationship yet! I will certainly bear that in mind, I guess emotional ups and downs come with relationships so they are a risk to jump right in!

            Heavens Heavenly! 18years sounds a stretch, but wouldn't it be wonderful?

            Love all

              It is wonderful to read your post and hear the hope in your *voice*. Congratulations on those 18 sober days - that is awesome. Getting rid of the booze doesn't guarantee a life full of roses and sunshine. But it sure increases the possibilities! Enjoy each sober day!

                  Alcohol is simply the device between success and failure.

                    If alcohol made you happy I should be the happiest person alive! I'm not.
