    Newbies Nest Roll Call

    New today and addicted to chilled white wine....how do I stop... help!!!

    :new: Hi I am 53 and been trying to quit white wine for about ten years, I can drink a bottle a night and often do without any side effects!! I don't want this any more, I function great but I know I cant moderate as all I do is wish time on to a drinking day !!! Does anyone else have a specific drink that is the demon.. I can resist all other drinks but not the chilled one... I am thinking of trying meditation but at the moment because I have tried so many times, and keep going back to it I have little motivation as I have no confidence I will succeed!!! Feeling very sad... what is life like without xx also not sure if I posted this right??? Should it have been a new thread ..eek, sorry if I've jumped in !!

                      I would rather have a frontal labotomy than a bottle in-front-of-me.

                              Goal: short-term make it through this week, then the rest of the month of Jan.
                              Long-term: no more ever...not even one, because I can never have just one.
