    i was here in April!!!

    Hi, I stopped by here in April and wrote a post and a very kind lady sent me a private reply but I cant remember her name, although I think it was Louise (thank-you). Since then I've been off on the "merry-go-round" of binge drink - hangover more times than I can remember!!! Why why why, do I keep on doing this to myself - I HATE it - and I HATE me for doing it to myself. I should know better, I'm 48 and have two grown-up children (who both know I drink way too much) and so, here I am again with the BIGGEST of desires to stop drinking ...... (not to mention that awful feeling of being hungover) ...... if only the memory of the hangover would stay at the forefront of my mind and not disappear then perhaps I wouldn't want another drink? I know I can't moderate my intake I've tried miserably sooooo many times, so why do I have the first one? But I suppose as long as I dont give up on trying to give up there is a glimmer of hope. Love to all Sue xxx:h

    Welcome back,
    Yes I think the memory of the hangover would keep most of us from drinking again but we get called back and have to keep fighting. Glad you decided to return and try again.
    Best of luck to you.

      Welcome back Sue. Hang around this time and you will find some inspiration! I also wish a hangover would stop me from overdoing it the next time...Unfortunately it's a lifelong battle.

      Good luck!

        Welcome back Sue. Good for you for coming back and continuing the fight!! There is always hope - don't beat yourself up when you slip, just get back up and try again! You can do it and we're here to help.

                    hi new here myslf, it does suck but talking to these people really helps, moderation is possible you just have to be in the right mind, do we drink to much or do we just punish owe selves to much , some people go through life drinking heaps and dont have a care in the world , depending on the people they hang with but i guess if you are here you have aproblem with what you drink so you are in the right place. Having heaps of ups and downs but trieing really hard , so stick with posting it does help.

                      THANK YOU ...

                      A big thank you to all in welcoming me back ... I have actually gone 2 days now with no alcohol although I am feeling pretty rough at the moment (keep sweating and feel really jittery) but am sure this will pass. Everyone is so kind and makes no judgement that I have fallen by the wayside (I hope not to again), it's really comforting to know that I'm not alone in my journey ... :thanks:
