Hi pearljam

I really believe sobreity isn't beyond anyone. I was an all day everyday drinker for many year but I turned it around.

I don't think it's about strength - noone really does this alone
There's a ton of support here.

I don't think it's about willpower either. I have a ton of willpower - but part of that will wanted me to drink.

I think it's about acceptance - I accepted I had a problem and accepted that my life would have to change.

It;s a big step but I'm glad beyond words I made it.

I love my life now, and I am comfortable with the man I am - I could never say that as a drinker.

I really hope you stick around, keep posting & reading, and decide to give it a go
