I'm roosta and am an alcoholic. This is my third time coming to SR, and to be honest, I gave up on sobriety really quickly the second time. I am not giving up that easily again!
I have ptsd and am currently being treated for it through talk therapy. Much progress has been made, and I had slowed drinking down to a crawl...only to binge over the weekend.
I woke up yesterday sick, tired, and yet strangely, full of fight. I won't let this disease beat me. No moderation, no just one drink, no period. Sobriety is my goal.
I don't have a plan in place yet. After I get done with this post I'm going to look up the local Women For Sobriety chapter and give them a call. And to stay sober for today. I guess that could be a plan? :-)
Thanks for reading and thanks for being here. I'm in a new town and have no friends. Makes it real easy to grab some beers and hide in my house, but it doesn't have to be that way. Have a happy and sober Monday folks!
