    Are you a 'mwo' virgin?

    I'm smiling... I remember that feeling... you will be so happy to find that you get to a place in which "weekend" does not mean "alcohol"! There is so much more to life, so much more enjoyment to be had when alcohol is taken OUT of the equation!

    But, of course, you can start any day that you choose!

    The threads: go to the "Forums" and you will see "Introduction and General Discussion" and under that there are a list of the names of threads; this is a thread right here, that you started. Every day there will also be a thread called AF Army, and there will be one with November Ass-Kickers... also, under Monthly Abstinence, there is a new "daily" thread every day.

            Mondays suck. I never start anything on Monday, they are tough enough! :upset:

            But I do know how you feel. I would make every excuse: I can't it's monday, I can't it's tuesday. Pretty soon every day was just a big blur. Mondays still suck, but they are headache-hangover free!

              KW,

              Can't add much to what has been said but I wanted to say WELCOME!!! This place, these people and this plan are truly amazing. And yes it CAN work. Takes a lot of discipline.

              Good Luck to you:l

                      KW, I'm right behind you.

                      I only found this site about a month ago. I'm on my second week AF and want to eventually moderate.

                      I started on the kudzu and L-glut that I got locally which got me moderating for a couple weeks while I waited for everything else to arrive (cd's, got topamax from the dr, all the other supps, etc). I started my "full blown" plan on Sunday because when I arranged all my supplements in my pill sorter it started with Sunday. LOL that's how my silly brain works!

                      Do what is best for you. I'm very glad you're here. Please feel free to PM or e-mail me any time.

                          Are you a 'mwo' virgin?

                          HI KW, I'm "Watching & Learning Today"... and for the last few days really. Clearly I'm new. I don't even know if you'll get this. I haven't written anything before. I want to start finding some support too. I drink everyday and despite feeling bullied to drop a 'bad habit' by my non-drinking partner, I really know that I should stop for my physical and mental health and just maybe - to start feeling some pride in myself again. I can't believe I'm saying this but I will start with you if you like. I'm scared. I'm going to feel very lonely not drinking. WALT (but I'm not a boy).

                          I've been re-reading this message for ten minutes or more - just staring at it. I'm so scared to think of stopping drinking - it's such a big part of my life, well, everyday. So sad.

                          OK, big cry over - I'm scared, my hand is shaking, here goes.

                            Welcome Walt!

                            What a great step you have just made:-) You have the understanding and support of all of us here. The first day is scary, hell the first week isin't a bundle of fun, but many of us have been there before and have made it.

                            Good luck on your first day. I think your post show just how brave and courageous you are!
