          If anyone would have told me 1 year ago that i would be sitting here sober on a weekend, i would have thought they were insane. I could not see a way out. I honesty knew i was waiting to die. I even hoped that i could do some thing to get locked up to escape the demons of alcoholism. If i can do this, ANYONE can. Alc had weaved itself around every aspect of my daily life. Beer before work, beer after work mixed with vodka. Drunk driving, during cooking, during shopping, family gatherings...you get the gist. I literary couldn't do anything without alc. My faithful companion. My killer. He took everything from me. Years, family, friends, peace of mind, reputation. By the mercy of God he couldn't take my faith which ultimately would be MWO. The power of surrender. The instant i was willing to give up alc for good , a heavy load lifted.
          Start with a nutrition and exercise plan. As an alc your body is deficient in everything. A good diet of raw greens and fruits combined with lean protein is very important. Exercise especially cardio is good for sleep, depression and anxiety
          Its for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm then and DO NOT let yourself be burdened again by a yoke of slavery. Gal 5:1

            :yeahthat: :agreed:

            I would 'Like' this if I could. Says it all, really.
            Well it's all right now. I've learned my lesson well. You see you can't please everyone, so you've got to please yourself.

                  Good job Witts end. Take on day 4. I have trouble remembering what I read on MWO and that is 10 minutes after I read the post!
