If I had based my recovery solely upon my feelings I would not be sober right now. Some say recovery isn't for those who need it, but for those who want it. I say recovery is for people who work for it, whether they want it or not.
I agree wholeheartedly, Bamboozle, and you put it so well!

I didn't want to quit either. All I could say is that I wanted to want to quit. Basically, I didn't want to die an alcoholic.

You really can do this, Master - it takes some time to get used to being sober (many months for me), but in the scheme of things, it's really not all that much time. I'm glad you're reaching out for support - that's huge.:ghug3
