Lets see, can you quit alone, yes and no. I quit alone after years and years of drinking, went to a few aa meetings and thought wellll thats not for me.

I was sober for 5 years, I was healthy, I worked out, I DRANK AGAIN!

I realize I was not very happy those five years because as people here have told me, I was not drinking but I wasn't sober.

After two more years down the drain Im back at the start. Yesterday I went to a meeting. It didnt hurt, I liked it. I dont think the meetings have changed its just I know I have to change or go back to hangovers and worse. I have not been sober long but I have derermination and every hope I can stay sober this time.

Glad your here! I hope you find a way that works for you.
SR has helped me tremendously these last few weeks.

Take Care
