    Evielou, that's not true and you know it -- you are stronger than any bottle of AL. We all are; we just need to find the strength.

      Absolutely am loving this thread. Can relate to almost all above.

      The Shame.
      The Lies.
      THe promises made and not kept.

      I recently met a great guy but ruined it with drunken texting - ho hum. I have spoiled so many good things in my life while drunk, and then of course am full of remorse, people, no matter who they are DO get fed up with sorry when it is over and over and over again. THe lies I told when drunk - Ugh....

      Rather die standing, than live on my knees, begging Please..... No More.......

        OMG exactly the same as me, I have ruined two potential relationships from getting drunk and texting then getting paranoid UGH I hate myself for what I did.

        Reading through this entire thread is just so inspirational for my first day here, all the lies I told myself, all the money I have wasted, all the forgotten promises to my kids I have done them all.

          I hate when people say: "Boy, SHE can drink".. And they're talking about me.

          I hate wondering if my kids could tell I was drunk.

          I hate having a DUI.

          I hate trying to come up with an excuse about why I am going to be late to work.

          I hate thinking that $50 for a bottle of wine is reasonable.

          I hate not remembering what the $50 bottle of wine tastes like.

          I hate that I am a single mom that WOULD spend $50 for a bottle of wine.

          I hate being so selfish.

            Wasted time, bab memories

            :new:I can relate to all of the above-it is a small comfort to know that there are others out there like me. I wish I could erase all the memories that my children and grandchildren have of my drunken stupors!

              Hi Brandismom. We can never erase the past, but we can sure build a different future.

              Welcome and best wishes to ALL the new folks who are posting to this thread or just reading...WE CAN DO THIS!! Others have overcome the beast, and so can we.

                    It's gross... St Petersburg airport in Russia smells like that. It did when I was there anyway...

                        I hate the way AL close down all system inside you and kills the fun out of LIFE, the little things, simply things, that we should ENJOY.X
                        1day af for me again and i forgot how AL makes me feel depress as well.

                          Caysea said something in the Abbercise thread yesterday that reminded me of THIS horrifying experience. How about those days where you get up, go to work and are STILL DRUNK from the day before. I'm talking about those days that are BEYOND a horrid hangover - I'm talking about those days where if you got pulled over for speeding at 7AM on your way to work, you would NOT pass a breathalizer test.

                          I am mortified with embarassment thinking about those kind of days, and wondering exactly how many people around me at work TOTALLY knew I was drunk.

                          Some of the things I hate about drinking come to mind easily. I guess the stuff that I hate the very most is sort of buried in my subconscious until something reminds me of it!

                            I hate the fact that I can only seem to go two weeks AF and then I am back on the wine again ... it is usually a bottle a day. So here I am again... I hate the fact that I can't seem to change my patterns!!!!!

                              Renegade, that would be a good thread topic. I don't feel I can start it as I'm not very far along in the replacing it dept. but would love if you shared more.

                                Can I add to this thread? I am writing myself a list of reasons why I want to go AF and found this thread both wonderful (cos I'm not alone) and sad (because no one should have to feel this way)

                                I HATE being scared to socialise with people unless I've had some alcohol
                                I HATE feeling shit all day at work and getting nothing done
                                I HATE planning my route home around having to pass a shop that sells alcohol
                                I HATE that I don't care enough about myself to stop
                                I HATE the anxiety and depression that are part of the vicious circle
                                I HATE that I prefer to drink than eat in the evenings
                                I HATE that I sometimes don't bath my daughter, or don't give her nutricious food because I'm drunk :blushing:
                                I HATE the fact that when I'm not drinking, I'm thinking about drinking. What a waste of brain space
                                I HATE that I have acid reflux and my stomach hurts
                                I HATE how terrified I feel contemplating a day, let alone a month, without drinking
                                I HATE not getting up early enough in the morning to shower before work
                                I HATE that I hate myself
