Im 21 days sober. Through focus and support im battling this **** with all i can muster
anyway. Hi. Im paul. Im an alcoholic.
But... im trying to keep it in check
Great job Paul.
I am much the same, great job, wife, family & life. But I can feel the bottle taking over, making me less interested in anything else.
I am on day 9 and would love to keep drinking but I cannot (WILL NOT) allow it to control me!
Stay the course my friend, life is better without booze!
