30 Days Hath September

My First Post

I'm new. but I really want to join in beginning Sept 1st. Please give me advice. what Supplements should I be taking.

I started drinking hard when i was in college, I'm 33 and now i have my first kid, a little angel, she came early and was hospitilized for a few months but is alright now. I just know that I want to give her the world but I have to get control of my drinking. So I want to start with all of you on Sept. 1st. there is no better time than now. Please help

InControl - NOW IS THE TIME! I've been struggling with my alcoholism ever since my kids were born. The other day we (as a family) were driving home and pulled over to the liquor store....my 6 year old daughter asked, "Where are we going?" And then as we parked said, "Oh....we're going to get beer or wine..." I cannot explain to you how much that hurt both my husband and I. It was like a knife through our hearts. My husband and I are quitting Sept 2nd. We are SO SICK OF THIS! It is so time to take control and fix this before our children are affected FOREVER! I don't want my kids to grow up in an environment where AL "beer or wine" is commonplace in their family. Welcome. We all need this support!

I guess it is mind over matters....Just knowing that coming sept 1st will be my first day without alcohol I am drinking wine and beer kind of a lot ...Does this sound like someone going on a diet???? I am still looking forward to a new start on sept 1st and I do want to make it for 30 DAYS... Is there anyone out there feeling the same way???....HUgs Michou

Yes, michou ----- There'll will be quite a few of us starting Sept. 1..... and I'm hoping a side benefit will be losing weight as well. Got to get rid of at least 15 lbs.!

michou you're not alone, although i've cut down a lot to get ready for sept 1, my mind is constantly telling me "come one, you're going to have a whole 30 days without it, one or two day of binge drinking won't hurt" i just have to go and do something to get rid of the thoughts because they are just that, thoughts that come and go and cannot control me. good luck----we can do this!

One more full day to go after today before Sept 1st..
I REALLY need to do this.
I wish my antabuse and supplements would hurry up and get here.

30 days AF... Lordy me..
If we can all do this, someone should post a 'certificate' online that we could all download and print out!

30 Days Hath September

Hi all --- I just returned from the big wedding I posted about over the last week or so and was aiming to moderate at so as to not embarrass myself. With the help of everyone here, with their info on supps and strategies and amazing support ... I DID IT! Drank lots of water, tonic and lime... did the toasts and had a couple of glasses of wine throughout dinner. Usually skip the tea/coffee time and continue with wine, but had tea and then very controlled throughout the rest of the evening. It was an amazing feeling to come home sober. I was a little stressed, but not much. Met my daughter's future in-laws for the first time --- seated next to them at dinner -- and all went well! Goal achieved and feeling great!
Looking forward to Sept. 1 and the 30 day challenge!

Hi Everyone:


Looking forward for a new day tomorrow, it has been such a long time living a day without booze and I am a bit scared to leave my (secret friend) behind but I know that deep down inside it is for my own good.....If i could do it for 30 days maybe I can do it for 90days and so on. I need the challenge and need to find out if I have the mental strength. Although I am back to work full time on tuesday, I will try to post every day to get your feed back as well......Hugs Michou

P.S. Thank you New Day for your response
