        Hi Bimble:l,

        Do whatever you can to take your mind off AL. Take a walk or run...clean....do anything...also look in The Toolbox here....lots of good ideas to think about. The more you think about NOT having AL, the more likely you are to cave. Keep us posted.

            Hi Bimble! Good to see you again! I am so sorry you're having such a rough time...I know how hard this is. It seems impossible at first, but it isn't! You CAN do this...believe me, if I can, anyone can. I couldn't even imagine going a night, much less a month, without my beloved beer ("beloved" beer that got me 2 DUI's and some jail time...."beloved" my arse!). I know you feel bad for what alcohol is doing to you. It's time to take a stand. You are better than alcohol, do not let it control you anymore. Stay busy the first few nights and I promise it will get easier. And stick CLOSE to us!!! :h
            :heart:I love my daughter more than alcohol:heart:

            Believe in yourself. You are stronger than you think.

              Go to an AA meeting, if that's an option. That has helped me before. Do youhave friends you can call?? Someone to come sit with you???

                Hi Bimble,
                Welcome back! Choosing to eliminate AL from your life is a great decision & one that you'll never regret
                If you truly want to quit today then make sure there is no AL in house, dump it & promise yourself you will buy no more!

                  Great advice already given, but I'd like to add one thing....don't let the FEAR of quitting get in the way of your actually doing it. I was so afraid that the sun would fall out of the sky if I didn't drink that if kept me drinking. Truth is, is was DIFFERENT, very different, but it was never BAD like I'd thought. I never shook uncontrollably or babbled in tongues like they do on tv. Keep yourself occupied, bury yourself in the wise words of this site and keep your stomach full....really full! The next thing you know it'll be bed time and you'll have Day 1 behind you!! It's not nearly as bad as we think it's going to be!! We're all right beside you! Byrdie

                    Im usually pretty long winded, but Ill try and keep this short.

                    You should not be afraid of living without AL.....you should be afraid of spending the rest of your life dancing around with it, and the consequences that follow.

                    Life without AL is a life of freedom and clarity not remotely possible with AL.......believe me

                      Beautifully said, Nelz. :h

                      Bimble I agree with mama- I thinks you need some face to face..AA or someone you know even remotely who has stopped or is trying....

                      Being alone tonight or tomorrow will make it tough but definitely stay close here...and have lots of water with lemon on hand.

                        Well said Nelz. Bimble - gave you tried valerian root? It usually helps me to relax.
