    Back to Say Hi

    Hi to all my friends! It has been a while and I miss you all! I am not sure how long it's been but it feels like forever. I had to leave though - I was becoming (or was) addicted to this site and neglecting my family, just like I did with alcohol. I have been busy getting my home life back on track. I feel like I have grown a lot since I became sober, that first day February 08 2010. My last drink was on the 7th of Feb and I still do not miss it. I see people drinking and often I am asked if I would like to have one. Honestly, I still do not feel like I could have just one - my drinking in the end was not because I enjoyed the taste of a good beer - it was to get drunk, sad but true. I do not wish to have one drink at all anymore or any for that matter. I owe my sobriety to Baclofen and this site - all of the wonderful people here.

    As some of you may know, I attribute my lack of cravings to the 60mg of Baclofen I was taking. Recently I decided to taper off because of the SEs. Recently I just feel tired all the time - not sure if its Bac or laziness! Dont get me wrong; all SEs are worth the price of sobriety but now that I consider myself sober, I hope that I am strong enough to remove the Baclofen from the equation. A few weeks ago, I dropped 20mg from my dosage. This week I dropped another 20. in a week or so, I may go down to 10mg or stop completely.

    I would like to know how my friends are doing; the ones that I have followed along the way - I hope they check in and let me know.
    Mama, Pink, Rusty, Pheonix, Sol, Ayuria, Lion, RC - God I know I am missing some one - sorry!
    Guys, please let me know how your journey is going.

    I wish everyone here at MWO nothing but the best.
    Take care,
    Your friend - Road.

      Hey R2R!

      I am doing well, sober and AF for the most part. I have had one or 2 here and there. Three once, but never again - too scary! I owe it all to baclofen. Thanks for your support of me early on. :l

        Hi All
        Road good to hear your recovery is going strong. This is the type of good news this site thrives on. We who are achieving some good AF time were no different than anyone here just starting out. We all went through the hell of the first couple of weeks and hung on. It doesn't matter if your bottom has brought you to live on the street or you are a "high functioning alcoholic" it is just as hard for each of us. Road you have been honest with yourself and did what was necessary for recovery. It is so good to hear.
        Stay Strong!

              Too cool Road!! I'm so glad you checked in and are doing so well! Your positivity shines through your post!:sun: Very happy to hear about the home front too. Congratulations! I completely understand the need to take the MWO time and apply it to other areas that need fixing too. Every day I say I'm going to stay off at least until the evening but I almost always end up keying in. Just reading people's victories and struggles on their path encourages and enlightens mine. The love, support and humour is a nice pick up too. I am not 100% where I want to be yet Road but a hell of a lot further in the right direction. Thanks for asking. Continue to be well my friend. :l
