| new member I drink about 3/4 bottle wiskey every evening, never drink during the day only from 5pm ish till I fall asleep. Stayed sober for 5 years but since my wife died 3 years ago hit it again. Gonna try to clean out the drinks cabinet tonight and start clean tomorrow. Just got re-married and don`t want to spoil my life even though my tee-total wife understands.  |

| Welcome to SR creative - great name.  That's an awful lot of drink to just suddenly cut out - you spoke to your doc about it?  Stay safe, wishing you all the best in your recovery!!!  |

| Hi and welcome creative . I'm glad you found the forum. RK makes a good point about seeing your doctor. It's a wise idea if you haven't already. |

| Creative, I lost my husband a few years back and I too relapsed. (I actually relapsed while he was dying of brain cancer) I had 8 yrs clean. So I do know what you are talking about. I too have re-married and had to get clean again. My husband is very understanding and a sweetheart which makes getting clean even more important to me. Today I have 110 days clean. You can do this!
