kckman,
You are right. Recovery from addiction can be hard but we are in this together and need to draw strenght from eachother. I often have found talking out my feelings and thoughts with those who know when ever I crave makes the choice to stay sober one day at a time easier. Stay in touch withother alcoholics in recovery. Lean on us when you feel weak and when you feel strong offer your strenght to another. Hang in there my friend. It is worth it. I don't ever want to go back from where alcohol took me. I tell myself each morning I'll do whatever it takes to stay sober today and then I pray for help. I will remember you in my prayers tonight.
