Hi, I'm new here. I haven't had a drop in 1 year, 5months. But I still want to drink. I think about it a lot! Does that ever change?

I feel like I have a split personality inside me... half of me wants to drink and thinks about it all the time, but my other half has chosen not to drink. I like me sober so much more, my family likes me sober and i'm not depressed like i used to be..

BUT I MISS THE BUZZ! Even though at the end I hardly ever had that buzz, I was either sober or drunk. No in between.

Thanks for letting me share. Would love to hear from others.
