time to change
Welcome Smiley,
Ditto the good advice here. I've found the resources from this site - particularly RJ's book and the hypno cd's to be very helpful (Dr. put me on Campral a year ago and it's not enough). Then, when I'm most vulnerable (cocktail hour), I often go to this site for the encouragement. Be very thankful you have a good support system - hubby, family, home, etc. I share this with you and it makes getting the booze under control that much easier. Feel very bad for some of the drinkers on other threads who are not only battling the bottle but abusive relationships, sick children and worlds that are falling apart in general.
For me, I knew I had a problem with booze (besides the frequent hangovers, guilt, etc.) when I couldn't stop the running dialogue in my head related to booze. At any given social event, was there enough? Was the home stock adequate? What time would my husband be home so that I could get in a few "primer" drinks? Etc.,etc. Too much energy. Looking forward to hearing of your progress.
