1st day being a good boy

hey this is so cool. i just got up and showered (gettin ready for work) and thought id check out this thread and already im inspired to continue being a good boy lol. usually around this time im thinking about what time i can get to the liquor store, now that thought is all but difused. awesome...
beatle: yeah i think your right about the detox thing. i mean i wanna clean up and my addict hates that too, but i think its my spirit that doesnt wanna go to detox. detox is pretty good for breaking ones soul and destroying any self esteem i have =-(. so yes i know what i need to do, i think i can do it here with you guys! I will definately start taking the suppliments, next paycheque that is (spent most of my last cheque on drugs and alcohol)
rachel 28: yes, i have had some hard drug addictions, but i seem to be better at kicking those than the booze. it always starts with the booze. I hope to get to know you well too! this is neat its like an international 24/7 support group. I dont even have to leave my own home to find fellow non drinkers! cool stuff. Edmonton as robert smith said is in western canada. the geography here is flat, flat flat. if i go west 400 km though i hit the rocky mountains. if i go north from her about 500km i would be in the second largest oil deposit on earth (im an apprentice pipefitter in the oilpatch) so theres lots o work here!
janice': thanks and im very glad to be here.
pisces, kitty : thanks for the warm welcome
id write more guys but im gonna be late for work already haha! not that late but atleast i wont show up hung over =-)
k talk to yall later

Hi Ghostman,

I'm a bit late with the welcome because i've had a busy weekend and couldn't get on here ...... This will become your new addiction .... I had the shakes this morning with withdrawal from it, but i'm better now LOL

Well done for your progress so far, and yes you WILL make loads of new friends here ....

Love & Huys, BB xx

Welcome Ghostman!!

Yes, please keep reading and pondering what you read.

Everyone on this website has chosen to try to overcome their addiction in one way or another.

Just wanted to add one little thing. Remember, just because you have an addiction, doesn't mean you are "bad" -- opposite of first day being "good."

I always remind my dear husband that some of the nicest people I know are alcoholics, and he kisses me and agrees.

Best of luck and know you are definitely NOT alone!!

Cindi

Hello Ghostman!

Hello to you Kyle from Miss CDJ in the UK! :welcome: Like you I have just joined MYO and have also had my first day in a few weeks without a drink, hurray!! It's great that you're taking control of your situation, this seems such a helpful and friendly site. I am a bottle or two of wine a day girl and have found it hard to quit without any support but feel AA is too religious for me... are you further on with the book? Am ordering it tonight and am going to try the supps. Keep up the good work and keep in touch! -Miss CDJ

Good morning Ghostman

Hi Kyle & welcome. No problem you'll meet loads of folk here from just about all over. Bedtime here in Switzerland, and I've just finished day 2 without 2 bottles of wine. The evenings are so taken up with reading all the posts - some are a scream. Cheers - luc.
