thanks again for the warm and nice welcome ! I know for sure that alcoholism is a deadly disease; in my familiy people died from it. When I quit drinking it was a choice for life; i just didnīt want to die...When I quit drinking I didnīt have any idea how to do that but the aa-concept of one day at a time was something I did understand...My alcoholism for me was the very desperate trial not to feel and not to face unpleasant emotions ; fear, helplessness and loneliness ...For me beeing and staying sober means also to learn to live with these fears , learning to handle my emotions. Right now it feels like I have to face some demons - physical pain -again .I am trying to learn to live with it, not to give it too much space. But itīs a challenge, I have to say that...


LOVE
Sabine

P.S.: Could anybody please tell me how I move an icon in my postings ???? I might be a technical idiot >g> but so far I am not succesful...
