Welcome to the SR family!

You will find support and information here.
Please make yourself at home by reading and posting as much as needed.

When I first came to this forum, I was introduced to the three C's of alcoholism.

I did not Cause it
I could not Control it
I would not Cure it

I was exhausted from trying to control, fix and anticipate my alcoholic's moods and next binge.

I also discovered that I was as consumed by my alcoholic as my alcoholic was with the bottle.

I did some reading, learned what I could about alcoholism and asked questions. It helped to hear other's experiences. I realized I was not alone.

Some of our stories are posted in the permanent (sticky) posts at the top of the forum pages. Here is one of my favorite stickies:
