Problems

Hi all,

I am a young man in my 20s and have over the past two years realized that I have a problem with drinking. I could go into the details, but they are similar to all of yours.

I've quit cold turkey twice this month; once for a week, and again for three days but relapsed both times. During my sobriety I picked up running, but I've almost lost entire interest in that.

Both times I went through minor withdrawal...specifically anxiety and nausea.

So, I sit here now, early in the morning drinking beer and I feel better than I ever did in my brief sobriety. What motivation did you all have to stop drinking?

I do want to quit...my life has deteriorated rapidly, but it's just so easy to just hit the bottle, feel better, and have no more worries.
