Hi Flakey,

Glad you are here! This is a great site and full of inspiration, motivation and support.

I am making a point to poke my head in here at least once a day to read, or if I feel I have something to say, to post. Its really helping confirm my resolve to be alcohol free.

I tried moderation up, down and sideways because I just didn't want to let it go.
I found it much more freeing to finally just quit.

Now, I am no model citizen for sobriety. I relapsed seven days ago after a year and a half…all for some dumb dinner party…but it made me realize I still hadn't let it go and I still need to work on myself. Sadly, It doesn't just go away on its own.

SR is great because at any time there is someone here to offer support, and somewhere in the threads there is something someone has written that can be identified with.

You can do this!
