    Morning all

    OH- don't wait for rock bottom. Your probably at rock bottom with what you're feeling. It's enough to keep trying.

    Keep reading and posting. Making a plan and trying.

        OH, I am taking in all the responses you got as if they were meant for me. I am still not there yet. Have had so many situations that should have been rock bottom but still continued.

        Relapse starts long before the drink is drunk!!.Fresh Start!

          Howdy all! NS said it right, you don't need to think you are at your rock bottom to quit. Remember the old saying "if you find yourself in a hole, the first thing to do is stop digging!"

          So the next time you think you need that next drink, remember, it's just another shovelful of dirt into the hole you've dug for yourself.

          Quitting and staying quit isn't easy, its learning a whole new way of thinking. It's accepting a new way of life, and not just accepting it, embracing it...
          Worry about tomorrow, tomorrow. Just get through today. Tomorrow will look after itself when it becomes today, because today is all we have to think about.
          Friendship is not about how many friends you have or who you've known the longest. It's about who walked into your life, said "I'm here for you", and proved it.

              Geez, I thought I posted today. Wonder what happened. Anyway having a bit of a pity party tonight. Tough day at work, texted a bit with my son which makes me sad and then hubs says the guys in the neighborhood invited him over again tonight for some whiskey. I didn't say anything to hubs but it upsets me that he can go have fun with the guys like that. CJ is out for now, so I'll be alone.

                Please don't feel sad. You won't be alone Lizann, you have us! Do something just for you, have some relaxing time and remember we are here. I baked some muffins and gave them to my neighbours today, it made me feel good.

                    Hey Liz - hugs :hug:
                    I understand that feeling for sure. Halo is right - you have some 'YOU' time. Just relax and enjoy it.

                        Has anyone heard from SoberSoul? She hasn't been updating her blog and I haven't seen her here either.

                          Lizann,

                          Here for you friend. P.M. one of us if needed. Stay busy having fun...watch something you enjoy or do something relaxing for you. Try to look at it as an opportunity for alone time to enjoy yourself.

                          Addy :love:

                            Hope you enjoyed some me time last night Liz....

                            Feeling sad right now.....
                            I just really don't know where I fit in on this site anymore.....
                            When I post how much I drank or didn't drink it helps me be accountable....
                            But where am I welcome to do that?

                            I'm not even doing well at moderating right now.....and I don't even care....whatever.....

                            I feel like everybody is trying to force me to be totally AF....but I'm not ready for that....

                            I thought this was my way out

                            I miss the mod squad.....😢😢

                              Blue - I understand how you feel. But, it is also hard for some of us that are in the early stages to hear about drinking.
                              Why don't you start a new Moderation Thread? I am sure you are not the only one that is moderating.
                              It is just not an option for me.
                              You are always welcome to just come and chat on the Steppers Thread. But, we are trying to keep the focus on AF and talk about the drinking as something we are avoiding. :hug:
                              Please don't give up!

                                I tried to post in long term moderators..,.but only one person talks to me but he is almost totally AF too.

                                I won't give up....don't worry Nora!
                                I'll find a spot....but I won't be leaving you guys either I've grown attached lol
                                I need you guys to succeed and I don't want to be a hindrance.
                                Keep up the good work!!!!
