I just don't know what to do... I have this thirst when I'm alone and don't know how to get past it... I go to the university and it affect my grades. I'm very desperate ((((
Are you alcoholic? (answer that to yourself......I don't need to know) check out this other thread I just posted in: http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...ml#post3326219

The part of your post I quoted sounds like the inability to stay away from the first drink - AKA the mental obsession I covered in #2 in that post above.

Maybe you're still in control though and maybe you can moderate or set your mind to fixing the problems. Do that.......soon........like......today.


---If you can't, don't go to AA -- GOING to AA is a waste of time. The program is not designed to work by "going to AA." On the other hand......if you want to go to some meetings to find a guide through the steps, to work the steps, and to emerge a completely different person.....someone you can actually LIKE.......then AA works, it's guaranteed to work, and I've never seen it NOT work.
