Dean..I am praying you find your way back. You know all you need to know...now it takes action. Godspeed to you Dean.

Ahhh eastern time, I keep forgetting. Larry, Morning. Let's work on staying sober just for today, you want to?

Toomutch

Larry, stay sober for this moment and all the moments will add up to a day... Don't let that ego tell you otherwise. If it's telling you can quit anytime... Choose today!

Yes I would like to stop today. I don't remember my body shaking lite this before. I don't think I will be leaving my room today. I have heard people say that alcoholism contuses to progress even when we stop drinking. I didn't know they meant it literally. In my case that appears to be the true. Well it is 11:30 and I still haven't had drink. It's a new record for me. Think I'll shoot for noon.

If it gets too bad physically, get some help.

Just focus on today, one hour or minute at a time if need be.

Try to keep your mind occupied (happy thoughts ) - internet, movies, music, talking to your friends, family, other AA members - whatever helps. No "morbid reflection".

This too shall pass, my friend.

It helps to have tomato juice around, lots of water and food if you can belly it. I have my phone and it is Saturday if you want to talk.

Thank you for your willingness to care. It really does come down to one day. I wish I had something good to day here, just don't right now.

Astro

Thanks for at least checking in Larry. Yes, there are people here who care. Thank God for that, we all need support in recovery. Please keep checking in and let us know how you're doing.

Hey Dean, just checking in to see how you're doing. Not so good I guess. I don't think I'd want to be in your shoes right now. If there is one thing I absolutely don't want again, it's those awful shakes from the alcohol. Used to annoy me to no end!! Hope you're feeling better soon and some or all of this brings some clarity. :ghug

Not sure what happened to my post. I am afraid I won't have a job after last night.

I will do what I would advise others to do. If I have time I will take up some offers you guys have given me. I have to fight the urge to isolate and I just have to go through these withdrawals.

The first thing I would advise a person to do is pray. That I will be doing, all night.

You can fight this. Do it now. Best wishes, friend.

If you are done, lets move forward to your New Life. What's done is done; let's find the good in this journey. Those drinks taken, never have to be drank again. Lift your head and get on with living now Larry. I am here for you if you are willing.

I woke up again. Hate when that happens.

Astro

I wish I could give you the life that I wake up to every day Larry, I really do. I look forward to every new day in this life. But I've been there before, I was there for a long time so I do understand. I hope you come back to the path of recovery.

RufusACanal

I am sorry to hear that Larry. Hope you find something good today. Take care.
