i can't believe I am cruizing these threads again....this will never end will it? I have been justifying my drinking by only drinking beer cause it doesn't "affect" me the same way. but saturday i drank one large and one regular size bottle of wine all by myself....blackout...feeling horrible today...i have kids...it just can't be this way...i went almost 3 months the last time i joined you all...it is time to get back on that wagon and get my crap together....

Welcome back, Star. Congrats on your 3 months way back when -- You did it before and you can do it again, and more. A permanent lifestyle change .. Let's do this for us, and for our families.
Since you haven't been here in awhile, how about reading through the last few pages of posts, etc., to help get yourself back in the AL-free game.
Nice to meet you ... Looking forward to seeing you on the boards!AF for two years. Slight relapse. Working on it at the moment. -

Hi Starfairy (like your name!)...
Yes, it's scary to have to come to that conclusion, isn't it? I think I'm there, too. Just getting sick of spending the money (when I can't afford it!) and depending on alcohol to make me "feel better". Sure, it seems to make me feel better for a while - but then I feel worse!!
3 months is great, btw. Longest I've gone is a month... which seems amazing to me now!
Anyway, good luck to you.Sometimes you have to take the leap and build your wings on the way down... Anais NinComment

Hi Star,
I am fairly new, so we haven't 'met' but welcome. I hate the blackouts - if there is one thing that makes we want to stop more than anything it's the blackouts.Success is not final, failure is not fatal, it is the courage to continue that counts.
