    Life was too successful before become alcoholic !!

    Hi , friends,

    its Kota who was a very successful person 5 years back but now ruined very badly .
    Actually I started drinking at my early age when I finished my schooling .I got first position in the result of final exam .I was very talent.One of my friend's brother suggested to celebrate the night with gathering and having some fun with alcohol.To be honest, I was too slim at that time and wanted to gain some weight.He suggested this is the right way to gain your weight.. I started drinking with roasted meat every night.I used to drink before I appear my college level exam.Though I use alcohohol when I sat in exam I got third position in my country in graduate level .It encouraged me further and din't think any bad on this habit.Now I understand it was in initial phase so no big attack in my memory power.

    Gradually, I keep on drinking and now I drink until I lost my memory.Now I feel I am devasteted in all sector.

    1. My memory power went to almost zero.
    2.My family realtion went bad,my wife ignores me to sleep together !!
    3. I just work for living cost , as I used to earn a lot from my business before...I had all facilities servants, Car,beautiful wife,children,family,two three houses in different places and many more...
    4. Now I closed down my business ,left my coutry to live in abroad where I am feeling lonlyness and my drinking dose going very well. I am not afraid of society and from family members which made me more alcoholic.
    5. Frankly speaking I have lost my business , family,time,children who used to say me a drunkard,relationship,assets and friendship as well ...
    6. Now ,I swear not to drink tomorrow but tomorrow never came !!
    I know all of consequences of drinking as I am very well educated and social worker in communities.I had very strong hold in country's politics,education and social activities now everyting have gone down.

    7. I am proud of me that am educated having extra ordinary mind but my effotless behaviour making me a very unsuccessful person in the world.

    Actually, I want to revive to my previous life but in vain. Bogged down by my habit.Please be my friends and share your past how you became sober... I can be an assest of the society and country as well as I have had very sharp mind by birth...
    Seeking your help... am helpless no one is with me, all friends and family I lost badly ...

              Kota, Welcome!
              I too lost a lot by drinking alcohol. I got divorced, almost lost my career. At one point my children asked my ex husband ("when does mom have TIME to drink?"). I lost their respect.
              I have everything back except the husband now! I also have humility and understanding and do not take my abstinence for granted.
              I went to a clinic in January and they prescribed Baclofen for me. I stopped the cravings so that my judgement not to drink could win over the compulsion to do so. You describe tomorrow never coming! How well I relate to that.
              Well my tomorrow finally came and it is TODAY!
              Good luck. there is a lot of wisdom on this website. Check it all out. I hope you find your way soon!
              Sunny

                I am sorry to hear that you lost your husband ! As far I know all these relation are manmade so no worry .Try to live alone sharpen your body and mind so that you can fight to any problems.I am sure you have risen your self esteem as well which is most important in the life... Nobody make you inferior without your permission .. !! talk to you soon !
                Whenever I get an opportunity I used to tell do not taste alcohol at all cause many people say in initial phase ,I can give up the habit at my own anytime .Terrible that is happening in my life. God bless you .

                    Hi Kota. Welcome.
                    What is your native country? To where did you move? I think moving to a different country is stressful in itself. You alcohol addiction is not insurmountable. Many here have conquered it.

                    Best of luck and God bless you in your struggles.

                    Surrender everything into the fire of that love until you are one with that love. You ARE that love.

                            Kota - if you are in London you will have lots of AA groups you can attend, you can find the times and locations on the internet. This might be a good way for you to get real face to face support as well as meeting other people who will understand. Do you have a good GP (doctor) you could speak to, he might be able to refer you to a addiction therapist.

                              I am physically sound now and not planning to see a doctor .Just I want to talk and share my pain like you people .You could be an inspiration and life guard for me .Please keep in touch and inspire me again and again .. if posiible please connect me to the one who became sober after a heavy drunkard !!!

                              Many thanks,
                              Kota
