My first time here

Hi, its my first time here on my 3ed day sober I feel good. My wife is trying to save my life but this is my last chance. If I can't do it I'll have to leave the house get kicked out by her. If that happens I know I'll crawl into a bottle and never make it out. So I have to make it if I want to live and I want too live. Thanks RM work:new:

Hang in there rmoniz! I know that feeling of a demon inside wanting a drink. When you read posts around here referring to "AL(cohol)" as though "AL" is a person, that's the demon in question I think. I went through a LONG time feeling like "AL" was talking to me inside my head or something!

I think this is normal. Think of it this way - if this were easy, there would be no need for zillions of books, web sites, support groups, counseling, rehabs, etc. for alcoholism. Unfortunately, this is not an easy journey.

That said, please don't throw away those 19 days by drinking! While it's true those days were AF, and drinking today wouldn't change that, drinking for me after some AF time absolutely set me back. I had to go through the same cr@p and difficulties of those early AF days and struggles ALL OVER AGAIN.

AFness gets easier the longer you do it. Difficulties are to be expected. Your mind wanting a fix is to be expected. We all go through it - you are not along.

Hang in there. Have you written down some of the reasons you want to stop drinking, and some of the positive things that have happened in your 19 AF days? How about "playing your tape" of what happens when you drink? (all the way through the bad stuff - not just the first drink. Because you KNOW you won't stop at one now, don't you!!)

OK - 'nuff said. HANG IN THERE!! If I can do this, I know you can too.

The only way to get those things, especially that last one, is to stay AF and give this thing plenty of time. HANG IN THERE!!!

It may not seem like it but you are on the right road to all the things you want. Sometimes it seems like the road is too hard and long but turning around is not an option. Find something to take you mind off alcohol. You can get past this with help from this website. Remember 19 days is a great start.
