Yes I AM going to do it MY GOAL IS 30 DAYS AF:goodjob:

I tried moderating for 11 days and did well, but at the weekend I drank with friends and last night I fell off the wagon completely..... posted a thread today, feeling ashamed and angry with myself.... after some supportive replies, Mario struck a chord and suggested I set a goal, of 30 days AF, then only after that should I consider moderate drinking.

I've always known I should commit to a lengthy period of being AF but was too scared to commit in fear of failing, but failing is not an option from this day forward.

I managed 11 days and it was getting easier until I thought I was being clever and would have a few drinks at the weekend and go right back to where I left off on day 11.... bloody hell I was stupid to think it would be that simple

So a BIG THANK TO YOU MARIO...... I won't let you and myself down, but guys I'm going to need help, so please excuse me in being a little selfish by using this site as my personal journal but it helps me to put things down in words, so I can come back and revisit the positives that I'm feeling now and then :l:l

Ill join in with you too Lady.

I have realized something. I thought that after I got 44 days straight sober that all the hard work was over.

Boy, was I wrong. Its now dawned on me that it takes a whole lot longer to get to the real sobriety, and that 44 days is really just a start! But the good news is, just imagine how wonderful you can feel after 30 days. That would definately be a great start! Im in
