hi "need to quit" and thankyou for that post.
You have helped me today to remember where drinking took me for that i thankyou.
Like me it seems you have reached the point where you cant live with it or without it.
like you...i had a top job with all the trimmimgs, two daughters a wife and all the fast cars i could eat.
I tried every easier softer route other than stopping drinking..
Then the day come when i had to admit to myself i was an alcoholic.
by this time id lost everything and was a street vagrant or bum.
My home was a porch outside a casino here in the uk.
Riches to rags in two years.
Its been a while now since my last drink and hand on heart my life has never been better.
Out of all the routes i tried ONLY aa and the twelve steps worked.
I can believe it looking back........all i really needed was an honest desire to stop drinking and aa
I believe YOU can stop....but please dont waste time like me.. Go to your nearest aa meeting....Try to keep going back
Keep coming back to this site and take everyday as a new day.
One of the most horrific elements of alcoholism is it will keep telling you your NOT an alcoholic while quietly killing you.
You are amongst friends and god be with you........trucker
