When I went to work this morning I had no idea I would find this sight, join and throw out my thoughts to all of you. I decided I'd take it one day at a time on not drinking after seeing the advice for mods on this site. Went to the local pizza joint for dinner. It has 88 beers from which to select. I got a great pizza and coke zero. I've made beer for over 20 years so passing up a good brew was difficult but not too hard given I had decided AF is the route for a while. No I don't know how long a while is, but I guess it's like pornography you know it when you see it. At any rate I'm a newbie and I've enjoyed and found inspiration from all of you. I hope to be around for quite a while. Thanks! :thanks:

Welcome again, Tizzer.
You should try the Newbie's Nest for helpful information. I have posted here before, and your reply was the first one, lol. You'll get more responses there.

Hey, Tizzer, good luck and welcome! I'm on day 12, and loving each and every sober experience. Careful not to discuss moderation in the Newbies Nest, but there's a lot of support there (and the Mod thread, too!) so you're in the right place.Well the 1st are the hardest days don't you worry anymore.

I also went to work -- feeling miserable and depressed, by the way -- because of my binge the night before (and before and before......). I don't know how I fell into MWO, I guess I was guided. I feel hope while in here. Thank you all and every one of you who support through this sharing of advice and experience!Comment

hi Lissicw!
welcome to MWO...there are lots of great people here, with much knowledge and experience. it sounds as if drinking is causing you a problem at the moment...
if you would like ideas about what would suit you, there is lots of good info in the book by Roberta Jewell which you can order or download from this site. It seems to be good to make up a plan of what you want...under the section Monthly Abstinence, I think, there is wonderful thread calle the Tool Box.
I really liked the hypnosis CDs available here, too, as I really needed to change my own mind about how I chose to use alcohol.
good luck and let us know how it goes. FF. "It is only with the heart that one can see clearly; that which is essential, is invisible to the eye.". Antoine de Saint-ExuperyComment
