So Easy

[H2O RUSH]

Hello fellow Earthlings,
I thought I would give this a try as I have tried everything {well almost} , to shake the grip Jose' has on me.Oh I can go a day or 2 maybe even 5 if I'm lucky. But it's always back to the same ol deal. A 2 day binge here and a 2 day binge there. I love rollercoasters but I hate this one.Its like I get out a gun and play russian roulette with my life every time I drink. Yet why? Thats a stupid game.And I don't consider myself stupid.Weak..........I guess that is it. I feel like I have gone from hero to zero. I have a lovely life,and have so much to be thankful for.Yet my drinking makes me feel like I am just throwing it all away,physically and mentally.I have been drinking socially for about 35 years with the last few years gaining the weight and lack of energy.Just not for me.But I need help.
I thought I would see if some interaction with others in the same kind of sailboat as me, would help get me thru those inevitable happy hours that have just wore me out time after time.I read some of your stories and its like scenes from my own life.
So I will see if I have found the yellow brick road.And I don't mean the Jose Cuervo Gold road. Loli Loli
Obviously I'm not a cave woman as it isn't easy.

Welcome

Hello H20,

You are in the right place. Many who come here follow the same path and find their way out.

Some choose to figure out how to moderate and others choose to figure out how to abstain completely.

Whatever path you choose, we welcome you and wish you the best.

Read the stories, read the book and best of luck!!

Hey H2O - who are you calling an earthling!?????

Welcome :welcome: - you know - I have been here 6 months or so and have made SO much progress with the help of all these amazing people on here - and I'm sure you will too.

Come here often - read and post as much as you can - and be sure that someone will always be here to talk to 24/7.

you CAN do this.

I used to be partial to Jose as well - but I am DEFINITELY better off without his company!!

Good Luck - and remember - we are all in the same boat - we understand!

Take care

Satori

yeh. whoever Jose is, sounds like you gotta get rid of him. this is a good place to start.

You are welcome to a great site-- lots of info and great people.

Get the book, do the stuff. It works (more or less) for most of us. We're all on a journey at different points, but all going the same way, I think.

Thanx Youse Guys

Hello to You,
Thanx for the fond greetings. They say admitting truths to yourself and reaching out to others can really help with problems bigger than ourselves. I bet I get thru today fine. I just don't know about tomorrow. That would be the greatest if little heartfelt words of encouragement etched on a computer screen could give me the strength I need to fight the monster in my head.
Hope you all have a righteous day or night being here now.............SURFS UP

Glad you're here!

:welcome: H2O!

Glad to have you with us and glad you're looking for a change of friends! - No matter how long you've had your previous relationship, it's obviously time to move on and we're right here with you - so keep checking in - especially when tempted - it not only takes up drinking time, it inspires and motivates too! All sorts of drinkers here with one thing in common - the desire for a sober future and a freedom from excessive alcohol use - Read some of the long term abstainers and moderators for inspiration as well as those of us who are just starting out, or somewhere in between. We've all had to take that first step which is the most important, so again, a warm :welcome: and good luck with the first steps to your new future.
