db2fromala.

My husband has neuropathy also - he is diabetic but the progression of the neuropathy is much too speedy to blame realtively low blood sugar counts so alcohol is the diagnosis.

How long have you had it? How bad is it?

Thanks for sharing,

Hi Jasmine, and welcome.

You can do this. The desire and motivation have to come from you, but MWO has a lot to offer: (1) You're not alone. A lot of us are/were afraid to admit to our problems because we feel like we must be the only person in the world dumb enough to fall into the alcohol trap and too weak to get ourselves out (lilnev raises hand). You're not the only one with this problem, in fact there's lots of us. And everyone here has been in that hole, and won't judge you for it. (2) Examples of people who've succeeded in getting out. It can be done, and people who have done it will be happy to share their wisdom and encouragement. (3) Practical advice on medications/supplements, combating cravings, changing habits, etc. (4) Most of all, a whole community that want to see you succeed.

The fact that you're here says to me that you have the desire to change. Keep reading, think about what you want to change and how you're going to go about it, and maybe post your story when you're ready.

peace and strength,
lilnev
