How did I ever find this place?

[lushy]

I was curious tonight how I came about finding this place because all I know is I googled something a few months ago, but I could not remember what words exactly. Nothing I put into google tonight brought up this site. I tried alcoholism, help with problem drinking, natural ways to cure alcoholism, etc. nothing..Is it just pure chance I somehow found this website? Well, whatever the reason I am glad I did. You all have brought me many a laugh lately, which is something I think we all desperately need in our lives and do not get enough of. I am curious though, what words bring this up on a search engine that so many of us have discovered it?? Have a good night!

Interesting that you say that about finding this place. I googled in June, when I needed to find something ON THAT VERY DAY, if you know what I mean, and I found it. Just like that. I was into it. I had meds and supps and hypnos before the week was over, and that was that. I thought it was God. Seriously. And I don't really believe in an interventionist God, like Nick Cage's song says. But it's so weird that you say that because I don't get it either, and I've been wondering that same thing for months. I told a couple of people that I thought I had a case of divine intervention, and they looked at me sort of weird.

I found this throught the Weight Watchers website in a chat room. A group of people who are trying to lose weight and know their alcohol consumptions slows them down. It's funny how my perspective has changed since I found this site. It used to be weight loss first, health later (even tho I preach differently). Now it's health first, weight loss a bi-product.

Thank you all for being here!

Well Lush great question, I found it in April and can't recall what I put in my search string. But it seemed to pop right up, now I can't find it by searching my ususal strings; alcohol, addictions,
HELP ME I'M SINKING. Wow I'm glad we all found it too, I was out of hope like a whole bunch of us. Not no more!! Plus the perks of all the dangerously handsome and witty blokes!
Wonder if RJ has thought about linking her website so it can be found easily.

I am glad I am not going crazy because I just could not figure it out last night. I, too, felt like it was some sort of divine intervention on the day I found it.

Me too, how did I get here?

I've been wondering too, since soon after I stumbled on MWO, how I got here. I think I recall googling "alcohol treatment" or "alcohol additction treatment", while at work, solely to obtain information for a colleague regarding current meds used in treatment of alcohol withdrawal. Purely professional inquiry...really. Though I've been haunted by my own alcohol problem for quite sometime, I did not have personal issues on my mind at the time. When MWO came up, I could hardly believe it!! ! It was EXACTLY what I'd been seeking, but never thought existed. On my first post here I actually described it as a godsend! Was it divine intervention? Who knows (and who really cares). I believe God, or the universe, or humanity, etc. is there to help us out when we're ready to make difficult positive changes. I had planned to go abstinent for two months beginning mid-September, and really put a lot of planning, thought, and emotional effort into making it work. Then I found the MWO site 10 days later. Was it a coincidence? I think not. Without sounding too "airy fairy", I do believe in syncronicity in the universe, and this was one very powerful example for me.

My best to all of you. Your posts have been just what I need,

Kayjay
