Hi goingdown. I felt the same way. I was in my 50's when I quit, drinking for 30 yrs. like you. What I loved was the way it USED to make me feel - not the uneasy, foggy, numb feeling I had in the end. It was taking it's toll. I was so afraid to let go of it - I'd used it to cope for most of my life. Now that I have close to 6 yrs. sober, I never miss it and am thrilled to be free.

I'm glad you've reached out for support and encouragement. You'll find plenty of it here. We all understand how it is to be dependent on it & we want to help.
