Can I ask what led you in the July group to stop drinking? I took an overdose and missed three days of work with a job I love, lost my partner and began to have tummy pain. I also looked at my empties and I had been drinking five bottles of wine a day. Still not entirely sure what clicked inside my drunken head - might have been the Dr I saw, he just happened to be an addiction expert and knew what to do and promised to support me.
