Right kate, you do have to pay the dues first. Like climbing a mountain, you have to work to get the exihilaration of the top.

Getting ready to detox tonight
Colbe, I've read your past posts. I remember the scare we all had for you. It hurts each time we see someone come here and not get what they need. But what do you need? Do you want to stop altogether, or moderate, as others have done. If you have fears and issues with posts, speak out. We do, or we choose to find a place here we feel more comfortable, where we get help from people who we've come to know and trust. I tell you in all honesty I want to help, but I don't know what to do. As far as detoxing, the physical sensations, reactions, will depend on your on body. You know the things you need to do; drink lots of water, add lemon, take any prescriptions drugs you've been prescribed, get a lot of rest, expect mental confusion, and, in my opinion, talk to someone you trust. Either here or someone in your life. It seems to me you've been conflicted about what to do, and how, but if I, or anyone here, can help you, we will. Please, please, remember that anything too extreme should be treated by a doctor or some other medical professional. I wish you the best, Colbe. It would be wonderful to have you join the regular groups and be involved in the everyday world of MWO, but, for today, lets get thru detoxing.

Colbe,
Sorry to hear that you are having a hard time.
Glad you came back though !
You have made the right choice and step to the rest of your life !
There is unbelievable support and love here !
I saw that you left because you felt that there was lots of judgment here which really surprises me for I have never seen that!!
As for the detox it can be done, it sucks for the first few days but gets better sooner than you think.
Make sure you have someone to watch over you.
Or go to some sort of treatment with professionals to take care of you !
I did it under the watch of my ex in-laws. (God Bless them)
I had all the supplements,Campral(anti-craving med),and Lexapro(anti-anxiety med).
And LOTS of water!!! I can't express how important that is!!!
And food even when you don't want it,several small meals a day.
You know the shape I was in when I came back to MWO !
I now have 26 going on 27 days AF !!!
I'm divorced from a wonderful woman that I'm still in love with.
I still don't have a job.
I don't have a car because the ex totaled it !
But you want to know something?
I'm Happy !!!
Sober !!!
I'm feeling stronger than I ever have in my life !!
My girls are telling me how proud of me they are !!
MWO and all the wonderful people here helped me SAVE my life !!!!
Colbe, If I can do this ANYBODY can !!
I know YOU can !!
I know you WILL !!
My thoughts and prayers are going out to you !!!
Stay strong !!
Much Love and Peace to you !!!
Bob:h:h

hi colbe,good luck to you,i to have learned over the years,it is easy to stop when youve already had a few,its coming off , and not having any for a few hours, days,weeks months and possibly years,if you so desire,theres an old saying over the many years ive tried to quit as some call it,i have no problem stopping,i hope this does not offend anyone,its staying stopped,that kills most , early in life,society dictates , its ok to drink, until something goes wrong,this ailment we have,drinking to much and the strange things we do , when we do them ,society again has a hard time forgiving us for,ive been doing this for many years, Choice , and im glad youve made the choice to stop or else moderate,gyco
