Janice Im back Lets help eachother

[garden girl]

I need to come back here and get some help. I have to stop drinking today, My two girls ,my husband, my mum and myself cannot cope with one more time of me drinking myself drunk. I love them and they love me. I know its no good beatingmyself up so I wont. I know its not my fault I drink but I cannot bear to hurt my girls again by not being there for them because i am lost in a bottle. I never will be able to comprehend how addiction can control you so much it is beyond belief. anyway I am going to use every tool I can to beat this. I will log on everyday and tell you all how I am feeling, I need help to fight this I cannot do it on my own.
Plan of attack
1. get supps
2.go to doctors today
3. tell my mum just how bad it really is and reach out for help from her.
4. go to alcohol counsellor more than I am doing
5. make myself come on here everyday
6 most important of all when the craving hits at 5.00pm dont go to shop and buy a bottle of wine but shout out loud that I need a drink and get help from someone anyone untill craving passes.
7 be able to enjoy mothers day because i havent drank

Go Girl!

You have a lot going for you:

Reasons to quit, people who love you, people (your mum) who may be more supportive then you are letting them be, a plan, and support here. You can do this!

Supplements are a great plan! You have to replace some of what you are getting from the alcohol, and your body needs to feel better so it is stronger.

I am not alcohol free. But, I have reduced down to only beer - which is a big step from the half bottle of vodka or rum tequilia. I haven't overdone it in a week. My tremors are getting better.

Vitamins/sups are a realy good thing. However, I think the best thing I did was Hypnotherapy. Think of it like a cd from here - but personalized! See if you can find a clinical hypnotherapist. They listen to your issues, write a program just for you, then relax you and recite it to you subconcious. Mine gave me a tape of it to listen to everynight, and some home relaxation and focusing exercises. They can deal with issues of why you drink, etc. It helped me the very first day!

Hang in there!:fingers:

Janice........GG.......this is a great post......reminds me of when we all checked in daily to Newbies in Need.........remember?.......I was a wreck back then.

I say GO FOR IT!!! Sounds like you are both pretty much in the same frame of mind at this time........you are kindred spirits right now........I believe you can make this work this time round by supporting each other. It goes without saying that we will help you in any way we can.

Kick the Beast`s arse.........HARD!!!! I KNOW you can both do this. :l

thankyou for all the posts fantastic response as always its nice to be back. i am going to commit to the daily journal as it will make me have more incentive to keep going. as far as I am concerned I just cannot drink and thats it, I am allergic to it funny thing is I suffer from asthma and really am allergic to most animals, so I never go near any. I want to get that same mindset for the alcohol. Thanks everyone lovely to be here again.
