Hi Mamby --- I can relate! I'm just like that ... once the dinner hour comes, I used to enjoy having a glass(es) of wine while I prepared dinner, and then enjoyed sitting with more wine to relax in the evening. I'm only on my 4th day AF and trying to resist the urge to pour a glass right now.
Let me know how you're doing.Comment

Welcome to MWO, mamby...good to have you here. Admittance of powerlessness first and vital step to an awesome new way of living....
For me, the NEED to sto drinking had to be overtaken by the WANT - THANK GOD I have that WANT today. Sobriety and a sober life is my main purpose today, for me, my loved ones and for the chance to help those who want it to gain what I have....

Keep posting - keep reading. Bless

Hi Mamdy,
Welcome. I also only joined a week ago.
It's my 7th day without a drink and I feel full of energy. The ppl around me do not know what to do with me anymore
Than again, I have been there before but gave in again and forgot how wonderfull it was without.
this time I am doing things differently and the start of this was (besides other measures) starting to joing this forum and tackle my problem actively and surround myselfs with others in the same situation. It makes it a lot better.
So I believe you have made the right decision to come to this forum.
Good luck with everything and am looking forward to hear more from you!!!AF since 15th March 2010
The journey is the goal. As long as you're fighting the good fight and you're not giving up on giving up, you're winning. It's not about how often you get knocked down, it's about how often you get up again. Sobriety the goal for sure. But striving to get to that goal is what it's about. Not getting there. Because the journey never ends. The journey is the goal.Comment

Mamdy, welcome.
I would not have gotten as far as I hve without the wonderfull people on MWO, its not just the good advise & encouragement you get, its knowing you are not alone anymore that helps, I am 14 days AF, my only slip up was 2 glasses of wine last night, but then i poured the bottle out, previously I would have finished that & gone looking for another, so I feel sucessful, keep posting & keep talking about how you are feeling, talk through the urge. Good luck.
