I'm 33 and it's my first day of no alcohol! I drink more now than I ever did as a teen or in my twenties, it's taken now to realise I need help! :-)

My daughter was dead when she was 30. I was 54 and her drinking stopped me from drinking.

I will be 83 tomorrow.

Welcome to living sober.

[QUOTE="grtgrandpa;4992807"] My daughter was dead when she was 30. I was 54 and her drinking stopped me from drinking. I will be 83 tomorrow. Welcome to living sober.

[/QUOTE

That is just terrible to experience such a loss :-(....however I'm glad you took something from it and stopped drinking yourself, I'm trying hard I've not had and psychological cravings as of yet just physical ones as I know if I take a drink some of the pains I've been having will go, well done on being sober :-)
