          Dave,

          Your post is so inspiring and insightful. I had just started the "morning top off" when I knew I had to get back in control or I was going to lose my business. I found this site and it has been a life saver. I have since started a Baclofen regime and worked hard to cut my consumption by 20%. The Baclofen process has produced some serious side effects and sometimes they are so severe I wonder if it is worth it. From now on everytime I wonder if it is worth it I will reread your post.

          Thanks!!!

            Dave, my day drinking was starting to get earlier and earlier, and I'm so glad my husband caught me as I was heading down that dark path. So very glad to hear things are turning around for you.

              That path is indeed a very dark one. In the end, I would look at the coffee pot, look at the vodka bottle, and pour a drink. At 5AM. Ugghhh. That is no way to try to live. That is a way to die.

                You are so right. I could sense the life ebbing out of my being. That was another life, another time and I never want to experience those things again. I feel such enduring empathy for people still stuck there. I want them to know there is a better way.
