CS04 - we're peas in a pod - what now ? Like you, I KNOW it is something I have to get on top of, but

the way I feel right now is not 'hopeful and you-can-do this, like it was before - I seem to have lost

energy somehow - how do you recapture that ? If you are in for it, let's try - starting Monday xx

Red Wine, I agree. Thru the tears, I still had the energy to TRY. Now I am stagnating, in almost all aspects of life.

CS, the water is cold at first, but before you know it you'll be having a ball. Come on chat when you can eh?

Redwine, CS, you two can do this!

Well i have been there soooo many times without wanting to realize or admit that I am actually there!!!! It's the hardest place to be becuase we feel so alone....I think. I can't give you too much adivice because I am only starting out to live a "normal" life. All I know is this place helps me so much . Please keep on posting!!

It's funny that you call yourself red wine. I never had a drinking problem until I fell in love with the velvet embrace of a good bottle of cabernet sauvignon. i am the offspring of alcoholic parents and always prided myself on my inability to handle more than one or two drinks, but oh that red red wine. it is either my downfall or my redemption.

Aiden, red wine is my problem, it's like a love affair, can't imagine life without it, but, the problem being, I love it more than it loves me. Monday is 'Dear John' day, and, I'll be here snivilling and complaining no doubt. You still on CS04 ?

Hi Red Wine & CSo4 and all,
If you are still talking about a this Monday start (as in November 10th) can I jump on your bandwagon if you do not mind??
I would really like some close company while I try to kick this habit yet again
