My perception is that people like you who quit and start posting right away do very well. Many others also do well using different paths to the discovery of what works for them. I found this forum a couple of days after quitting, and it has been a godsend.

Day one
My perception is that people like you who quit and start posting right away do very well. Many others also do well using different paths to the discovery of what works for them. I found this forum a couple of days after quitting, and it has been a godsend.My life is better without alcohol, since 9/1/12. My sobriety tool is the list at permalink 236 on the toolbox thread under monthly abstinance.

I am right there with you. day 2 feeling much stronger and better about myself....thanks to all the help and support from wonderful people on this site. I have been up all night, pretty emotional...so proud on myself for finally making my decision to quit but was still was beating myself up pretty badly...my husband has been away for 10 day..for medial problems....really lonely, sad, missing him. I felt like a kid homesick at summer camp for the first time...jeezz
I was on the chat room almost the entire night.....helped tons, thank god I didn't have wine in the house at about 3am it sounded good....but no more for me....not buying it.
I read 4 chapters of the book that I downloaded yesterday...ordered all the stuff, starting taking vit. and supp. I got at the drug store....All the kind words and reading all the posts, spent like 4 hours reading, really inspired me...thanks for all your help. Still a really scary feeling having to "feel" all these emotions, I have been holding them inside all my life.....I can do it with help, and people to share with. Based on some good advice, I decided to "forgive" myself and put, the shame, guilt, self blaming in the past.....that's how I use to think....the past is over...now is what counts.https://www.mywayout.org/community/im...ies/thanks.gif
Strong and determined more than ever

Hi Options! You need to get into a regular post, not quick reply to get the smilies......I think. It's at the lower right of this post where it says "quote." That should help with the smilies, okay?Noelle sez "Do want you like, like what you do. Life is Good."
