    i'm not alone

    There are so many people here that can relate to the feeling of being determined in the morning only to cave in by evening. You willread many posts from people who have been in your shoes who are now days, weeks, month and even years sober. I hope that you will find that a comfort and an inspiration.

      :welcome:

      Hi! I'm glad you have found us.. you will find lots of support here; i've been on this site less than a week, and already everyone feels like family! we all understand, and there will be no judgement here.. I kept slipping up and getting drunk when I told myself I would only have 1 or 2.. i've made so many mistakes with my life.. I aim to remain AF, and that way, my life should improve.. for me and my little boy.. just take one day at a time x

        Bell, I would be driving to work saying not tonight, I won't drink today. Couldn't then pass the liquor store on my way home no matter what. Always would have a stressful day or whatever reason to stop and pick up. It's when the AL is more powerful than you. And what I learned is the AL wasn't helping me destress, it was perpetuatuing it.
        You've come to a great place.

          This is EXACTLY the way it is for me. Such strong resolve in the morning.......by midafternoon ...don't know how I can make it home without stopping. I'm so glad that I found this place to have all this support. Great to meet you Bellinator!!!

              Welcome to MWO, Bellinator! Yes, we indeed know exactly what you are talking about. It is called addiction! But, the good news is that you can learn to live differently! There is a lot of great information here and many of us are enjoying lives that are alcohol free (AF) due to the information and support here on mwo along with hard word and a firm resolve. I am happy to tell you that I amone of these people! And the best part for me, is that I no longer want alcohol to be part of my life. I am happy and content without alcohol.

              Enjoy reading the boards, perhaps step into live chat and post when you want to. I also highly recomend that you download the book My Way Out. It is very inexpensive and is chock full of information.

              Best Wishes,

                      Hi Bellinator,
                      I only joined this site last week and this is my first post. I've been reading alot of posts and think this site is great.I even managed to stay off the wine for 3 days last week but this week I've slipped. I think it's because I hadn't logged in from Sunday.
                      Anyway, all the very best and good luck.
