Your anguish and despair is so familar. But there is a way out. Drinking is easy; recovery is difficult to even consider when you are trapped in your addiction. But if you expend half the energy you use to maintain your drinking on recovery efforts, you'll get there.

If you can find the time to drink, you can find the time to get help, seek out support, read about recovery from alcoholism, post to SR.

But it's on you. No one can carry you across the finish line except you. We can cheer you on, but you have to run the race.

Feta, I drank daily for 35 years. For years I told myself I needed to quit. But I was playing lip service to my addiction. Finally, I saw with utter clarity where I was headed if I didn't stop. Call it a miracle, call it pulling on my big-boy pants and getting serious about recovery. But I quit.

I'm a couple days shy of two years sober.

YOU CAN DO THIS!
