thanks

Hi. thanks for the welcome. This is a cool site. Love the smileys.

How did I do it? First I tapered down for 30 days. I was a lite beerdrinker. I was getting ridiculous. Everyday. Until I passed out. Then I had 3 hard days withdrawal. I just got to the point that beer was all I spent my time and energy on. It was making me so sick. Plus I was recovering from surgery. All in all, I knew I was gonna get sicker and sicker. So I set my mind to it. Stepped down slowly. Really thought about it (instead of trying to ignore it). I've known alot of alcoholics in my life. Mostly I just decided I didn't want my life to be like that. Don't know if I answered you properly. It's kindof hard to explain. Hugs to you.
