Thumbs up Hey ya all, ya ain't gonna believe this...

I've been off alcohol for 25 days, but what I find interesting is that finally I feel after ALL the problems/issues I had with it and so on, when I look at alcohol now at like any time I don't even want it because I know what comes with it. It's amazing how it's been finally built into me, it just won't help me later, it'll only make things worse :].

I'm really depressed tonight as I write this, but to those who are struggling recovering alcoholics and recoverers in general I just want you to know RECOVERY IS POSSIBLE! I'm still suffering from my opiate addiction but I am glad to say I am very glad to be off alcohol, at least I have SOMETHING off me... :ghug3

That reminds me of a famous British comedian who gave up opiates and then alcohol. He's doing well in America (and all over the world now) in fact.

It's only after sobriety that his career really took off...

It is a very interesting turning point when we realize the 'friend' we relied so heavily on, was our worst enemy. A wolf in sheep's clothing. No wonder it's so self-defeating.
