Dreamchaser and Murphys
I've just been reading this thread http://www.soberrecovery.com/forums/...ot-shakes.html and wanted to say you guys are doing great.
Keep up the good work, there is nothing more rewarding than to see people kick this habit where it hurts and you're both doing so well...
As somebody who knows how hard it is to stop, who knows the horrible side-effects that keep dragging you back into the self-destructive cycle - I can totally appreciate how far you have both come.
Well done guys. Keep going.

This site is really what got me kick-started Dreamchaser (in part), I found it out of sheer desperation and posted a few times whilst drinking. The support and encouragement I got from members here was second to none and now I'm achieving what I thought couldn't be done (almost 9 months now without alcohol).
It's great to see people on the same journey and making it, I really just posted this to let you guys know that you're not alone - I was really vulnerable in my first few weeks and uncertain about the future and if I could sustain it - most of us have been there, so we know how hard what you're doing is and we also know that it takes courage and persistence but that it definitely pays off.
You've got the rest of your lives to look forward to now, they will undoubtedly be much happier and longer lives - and you'll be free of all the fear, guilt and self-loathing that comes with drinking. Well done.

I hope I never forget what I went through to get to this point!
Keep posting and hang in there! I'm pulling for you.

Murph - the operative word you used above "refuse" will make the difference. I too refuse to ever drink again. However, I now also fear alcohol. It's not my friend: it's doesn't make me feel better; it not fun anymore; it causes me not but physical and emotional pain.

I have to tell myself it's a trick, and if I take that drink I'll be back in hell all over again, and I'm not going back there.
