    My first day on a long journey

    Hello! After drinking bottlle after bottle of wine day after day. Today is the day I stop the cycle. The catalyst... Had to check if my car was in the driveway after the short drive home which I don't remember. To finding I hit my husbands car a took a bit of paint off... Don't remember. Going to bed. You guessed it. Don't remember. This is a long time coming. I have had Very few days without some sort of hangover the past few years!
    Loading up on amino acids. I can do this! I welcome your support. As my husband does not believe I am serious.
    Enough!

      My first day on a long journey

      Hi Enough, I am working on day 5 of being sober. After a several years of downing a bottle or 2 of wine every night I'm trying to put my life back on track. It's a tough road but reading this board and the support from the people here has made it easier for me. I hope you find the strength to stay AF and remember that you are not alone in your struggle.:welcome:

              My first day on a long journey

              Day 2 was rough, I spent a lot of time reading the boards, especially the tool kit. I drank about 2 gallons of ice tea, made sure I had a full glass of tea with me at all times. Last night was my roughest, I got in the car to get some wine but instead went to Baskin Robbins and got a hot fudge sundae instead. Today hasn't been as bad, hopefully each day will get easier.

              I also hid my drinking, even went so far as to make sure I didn't go to the same liquor store two days in a row. Never drank too much when I was out with friends, always waited until I got home to drink until I blacked out. I never talked about how depressed and miserable I felt. I've always been the strong one that everyone depended on to be there when they needed someone, but I can't seem to ask anyone for help.

              Stay strong, keep hydrated, forget about your diet - eat if it keeps you from drinking. Keep reading the posts and you'll realize that you're not alone with this problem.

                Thanks! Funny I drank a ton of tea today. No going shopping and passing by the wine isle. Thanks!

                  Enough,

                  From my experience, if you can make it through day 5, it will sooooo much easier!
                  I craved alot of sugar,chocolate especially.Once your body's done going through Hell, all you need to worry about is the emotional stuff!(And that's what we are all here for)
                  Keep up the good work......

                    Made it all the way through the day today! First time in a looong time. Bought lots of amino acids and melatonin to help. Causiously ready for day 2.
