Hi Mr. Spirits,

It's great to see you on SR. I can tell you that wine was the exact thing that brought me to this forum. It is easy to romanticize a glass of wine sitting by a fireplace, or at a fancy party, however the reality, at least for me, was a bottle, or more and then feeling awful the next day.

I tried moderation on countless occasions, and found myself creeping right back to 1-2 bottles of wine a day. I am now 2.5 years sober, and feel better physically and emotionally than I can remember in my adult life.

The first few weeks are tough, but sobriety is worth it.
