Good morning everyone.
Wow yesterdays thread was amazing. It seems ODAT struck a cord with so many. I decided to start another daily thread as sometimes the threads become so long you get a little lost.
A big welcome to the newer newbies, Want, Mokigirl, Taking Control etc. MOW, well done on the new position. Great to see you again Vinophile, I remember your name from way back. Well done on the moderation, you have made a hell of a better job of it than I did!!
A big thank you to the more senior members, sorry guys thats seems a bit agest!!! But your encouragement and advice is greatly appreciated. Magic I see where you are coming from regarding Rehab and I guess we all do whatever gets us through. I agree that there is something in our backgrounds that causes us to drink. I am going through online counselling at the moment and I am finding that very useful. I have discovered that from my early experiences I was shown to hide things from people around me. Thats why I am more comfortable with MWO than AA and on-line counselling than face to face.
I also take responsibility for everything. My counsellor said to me yesterday that perhaps if I end up with all this responsiblity there must be a way of finding relief for myself somehow, and perhaps this might be a trigger for using alcohol? It has certainly given me something to think about.
Want, I found it very useful to write about my background, so go ahead on post on My Story in whatever way you want. Look forward to seeing more of you, I am sure you will contribute so much to this board and we are all there to support you and each other.
On Day 26 and thankfully had a good day yesterday. Today is another day and a fresh start. Good luck everyone.
