    Uh...Hi, 2nd night Booze Free

    :new:
    I found this sight yesterday while going through yet ANOTHER hangover at work.
    My Husband and I are both working on this together as we have been drinking nearly every night since my daughter was born (she's nearly three). we are totally functional with jobs and everything, its just our battle with booze.
    The posts on this sight have been extremely helpful. I really feel like I have somewhere I can go to get some encouragement when it gets tough (other than my Husband cause if it wasn't for him I'd be half wrecked by now and looking forward to a tired crappy day tomorrow).
    I'm going to order the book tonight and I already have all the supplements mentioned in the posts I've read from my past attempts to stop. The one thing those attempts didn't have was this forum. What a wonderful thing. I thought AA was my only choice as I do like the whole "peer" thing but the only one in my area is at 8pm (bedtime for my daughter).
    So thank you all for what I've read already. I so want to starve this monkey off my back.
    Much Love:heart:

      Hi to you both and welcome.

      Do whatever you can regarding the book and supplements, they really help physically, but be prepared to do a mental switch too.

      Hope to see you more often.

                  :colorwelcome: GTG!! Congratulations to you and your husband both for wanting to get booze out of your life. You will be so happy you did.

                  I'm glad you have ordered the book - I think having a good understanding of the program as RJ recommends it is very important. People tend to tailor it individually (i.e., I chose not to take the prescription drug recommended) - but if your tailoring doesn't work then the base line becomes very important to understand.

                  The tools here including this forum are excellent. They are not magic, however. But if you combine the good tools with your strong determination to get free of alcohol, you can.

                  Best wishes to you.

                    Hi GTG, Don't forget to have some good non-al drinks on hand for your witching time...whether that be teas, juices, sparkling water etc...my fav is just good ol lemon water....it also helps with the cleansing process as your body gets rid of all those daily toxins...

                    Keep reading and posting... glad you found mwo.

                            This is an encouraging place and great to lay out all those thoughts for others to help with. Just think...ODAT. That always helps. Just one day...
