Alcohol frightens my kids...AND I WON'T HAVE THAT!

Got an email from my daughter last week saying talking didn't seem to be getting through...told me how she and her brothers were SO frightened of losing me. God, did that hit home..I cried for hours but now read it everyday and it keeps me strong.
They're my world and they deserve a sober mum.

Alcohol causes my mood to change and cause awful trouble - it is pure evil. It knocks my confidence, makes my brain mushy and my body fat. It is something I just have to stay away from. I think it is black and white for me at this stage.

because when I drink, I start to eat and I've gained 15 pounds over the last 8 years. I hoping if I quit drinking, the pounds will fall off (I can dream, can't I?.. haha!)

You guys are all amazing - thank you so much for adding to this thread. Reading your replies have helped me so much - I didn't think anyone would add to this so it's been a really encouraging experience.
Anyway, here are another few -
Drinking makes me blow things out of proportion
Drinking lessens my abilityto properly communicate, even when sober.

Gotta go,
Hugs to all.

This is just absolutely RIGHT ON!

Alcohol steals all my free time away

Alcohol abuse hides the real person inside, taking away our power of controling how others see us. We leave them with no choice.

Alcohol creates a fake reality, encourages separation and feeds into our subconscious (but not with good thoughts).

what is a stone?

In terms of weight gain what is a stone? (or what is it equivalent to?) I am sorry for my ignorance...

[Caryll]

Reasons Not To Drink - PLEASE REPLY!

A stone is equivalent to 12lbs (I think!). Either way, that's a lot of weight.
