Hi, Ive hit bottom with my drinking and my wife will soon be making me leave the house. So Ive decided that my run with booze has to be over if i want to live my life with my wife. I want to be sober and happy I want to pice my life together. I want too stop lying to my self and my wife because of alcohol. Not having any withdrawal systoms so thats good but i know i need to change my life i want to change my life.

Just as long as your dedication to a better life doesn't pass, RM. Most of us have been there, done that. I suggest you start reading 'Tell Us Your Story' thread. The heartbreak comes right through the screen. It's a pretty good guess you're much younger than me. Also a good guess you haven't done ANYTHING we haven't. My only regret in life is alcohol, and the HUGE things they have cost me. Stay with us a while, even if you don't succeed at first. One great truth I can tell you is you won't be sorry.sigpic

:welcome:
I came realizing all the major mistakes I made in my life were connected to alcohol.
I got worn out from hating me and the problems caused by alcohol.
Read all you can here, post your thoughts. Many of us have marriage problems connected with alcohol.
Make your decision to quit, then do it.
Life still happens, but you have the ability to make decisions with a clear mind.
It does get better!Comment

Talk about a moment to feel grateful. RM 1) you are ALIVE, and I am sure because of past behaviors, that could not be the case and 2) you DO HAVE a WIFE, which clearly means she loves you and wants to happy with you.
So the way I see it you are a good man with bad drinking problem. Eliminate "the problem" and we are golden!!!!
But we have maxed out our do-overs and re-starts. We have to gain self control, from there we will really enjoy the people and blessings in our lives. Mess up after final commitment to change then real hurt and guilt will follow.....Something worth avoiding.
Hold your wife in your arms and ask her to support you and that your alcohol and behavioral decisions will finally change. Cherish the opportunity to make her and yourself proud. Achieve the combo of self control the pride and respect then its off to living a great life.
Lets look forward to food vs. booze, family and close friends vs. co-drinkers at the bar, etc.
Time to fight the fight and enjoy the family,psychological, and healthy victories.
Shorter version be strong and stay focused the main goal of being happy with your wife.
You are taking action now, don't stop! Be proud and excited.Comment
