Hi I'm new to the site today

Hi Kay..i too find 3 days AF is not so bad but then i get the Friday night blues.Last week i di 5 days AF(weekdays) and this week am trying to do the same.

Starting to realise the addiction is all about reframing the mindset. what i think alcohol gives me is an illusion...I have had much better times without the booze to excess.

I do hope you manage to set a goal thats small and achievable...watch your self respect blossom. good luck Kay

Regards Cassy

Hi Kay, welcome, I am really glad you found us. I relate totally to your post, kept denying I had a problem as I was 'just like everyone else' - DUH, how wrong could I be. Embarrassed beyond belief when I discovered those I thought of as 'worse' or at least the 'same' as me were discussing how worried they were about my drinking!! This place has changed my views of alcohol, pleases take a look through some old threads, there is some life changing stuff there. Looking forward to getting to know you.
