This is around my 3rd attempt to quit drinking, so I thought I'd write a thread introducing myself a bit.
I'm 27, and have been drinking pretty much every night for around 9/10 years. I generally drink between 5-10 500 ml cans of lager or cider each night, and feel like crap each morning. I have a full time job, however I do not enjoy work (probably isn't helped by the stinking hangover each morning!)
Some things have happened recently in my life with work, money and relationships which I'm struggling to deal with at the moment, and I feel like alcohol is making things worse, and basically I'm drinking so I don't need to deal with things and I can just put them off until the next day.
The longest I have gone without a drink is 2 weeks, about a year ago. I've poked my head into the newbies nest a couple of times since then, however I only managed a week that time.
Hopefully the way I'm feeling right now will spur me on to make this the last time I need to write a thread like this.
Cheers,
M.E.
