Thank you to all those posts. I related so much to everything that has been said. Life throws up problems, but I no longer feel like I'm clinging on with gritted teeth to not take a drink. The beast whispers and I move on. I'm so relieved to read people going through the same things. Because I don't feel to go down other recovery routes I'm told I AM sick! Lol. Yes, If being free of alcohol is sick, somebody call me a doctor!!!! HAHA!
