Hi Buffy, you have realized that you have a problem, that's a very good start and landing here will really help you as it has helped me. Just be open, honest to yourself and let things out. Read the book first, you are not alone. I've been drinking just the same way as you, it is really dangerous, I know it but when I just start I can't stop that's why people like you and me must be assisted, alone is hard. Follow the process, you have made a wise choice. All the best and welcome, Carla

Buffy,
I am with you. I have 3 children and a happy marriage. I don't understand why I just can't stop. It becomes like and obsession to keep that feeling going then before I know it I'm staggering and passing out.
Glad you are here. I am new too and stumbling along the way. Doing much better though!!

Hi Buffy,

I have two children and a great husband but man one drink becomes 18 + and I have no idea why. If I am in a good mood that means I need to drink because that is celebrating my good mood. Trouble is, I am a very happy person. I am pretty new here myself but I do know that posting and reading helps me tremendously. The CDs and supps are great. I don't take a prescription med but it still seems to be working. AND I'm not sure I can moderate but we will see...My family desrves better but more importantly so do I. Heck we all do. Good Luck.

Thanks for the support, we all sound like we have way too much in commorn....haha.....I hope the hypnosis cd will help to undo the programming in my mind about wanting to drink. It is funny how I too use wine to celebrate. I also use it to numb my emotions. It never works, and always makes things worse. I can't seem to remember how misserable it makes me feell the next day....or even a few days after. I hope some new info on the cds will change something. Buffy

this sounds like bullshit to me, none of this sounds real to me. things ive read here sound like doctors or who ever, posting shit that they havent been threw. my life has been fucked from the start. you will never get help from anyone unless you want it. be stronger than the feelings and the situation. i have to or......who knows.

Before Anyone responds to "unregistered" I ask that you please go to "what we believe" in our forums and read a little quote from Mother Teresa

Go to the top where it says "reply to thread" and you will see forums.

when you click on that it will take you where you will see all the headings such as "events" and "daily life"
click on "what we believe" under daily life and then on "antoher by mother teresa." It's something I think most of us can relate to

I wish I was a doctor.....I am a just a mother with 3 kids, my life is pretty dull most of the time. I know I have a problem with alcohol. I know I worry too much about things I have no control over. One thing I am not is a BSer...I am sorry that bs thinks so. Unfortunatly I have been through alot this year. My dad died, my sister had breast cancer my son got arrested and my daughter got into a car accident, totaled her car, was drunk, and has to go to court on Friday. I have used these things as excuses to get drunk. I usually never tell anyone this sort of stuff, so maybe in a way I am a BSer....I would guess most people I know have no idea that I have any problems at all. Some that have seen me drink probably think I have some hidden problem in my life....and yes there are other things in my life that I feel guilty of, I can't change them, and the guilt still hits me sometime. I believe in God and his forgivness, but still struggle with things like that. Well....there you go....me in a nutshell.....Buffy

Hi Everyone,
Today is my first day here. I downloaded the book and ordered the CDs. I'm going out on my lunch hour today to get the supplements...and tonight it's back to the gym after 4 months off. I started on Naltraxone yesterday. If anyone has tried this I'd be interested in hearing their comments. The topomax sounds good too but I was concerned about the side effect of hair loss. We'll see how I do on the Naltraxone. I'm feeling confident that this could be the answer I've been looking for. My goal is to moderate since I do like the social aspects of drinking...and most of my friends are drinkers. Good luck to us all!
Abel

that's really sad buffy, i think you've had enough pain for a lifetime. it's trite sounding, but true, it's always darkest before the dawn.
