Here I am!
I've been reading on this website for the past 4 or 5 months and decided yesterday to finally do something about my daily bottle of wine consumption, and that's when I'm alone. At parties it's probably two bottles, and I'm so sick of being addicted and being a slave to my cravings. I quit drinking for about 2 years and that was 10 years ago. I've been drinking since high school and I realize I've never learned to relax without the affects of alcohol. I struggle the most at 5 PM when it's cocktail hour and if I can get thru that time w/out AL, then I'm pretty OK. I'm lucky to have a BF who's a very light drinker, and I've been very careful to hide my consumption from him. When we are together I try to only drink two glasses of wine. It's a huge struggle, but I do it. I'm thinking the best method for me is total abstinence because it's easier than controlling. I plan to touch base here on a regular basis and really get a lot of courage from everyone's comments. So thanks for being here for me.:new:Tags: None

Welcome, Ms Baja!
You are in very good (bad?) company when it comes to the daily bottle (or 2) of wine - and I AM talking about myself.
I haven't got all the answers yet, either (or hardly any, really) but we're all here trying to kill the beast that's got a hold of us. I'm glad you've been reading for a while; so you probably know what everyone will suggest Read the book, make a plan, and arm yourself with as much ammunition as you can.
In any case, this is a wonderful community with tons of support when you need it and oodles of knowledge and wisdom.
Get comfy, grab a coffee or tea and keep reading & posting!Okay, WHO put a stop payment on my reality check?
