I love my wine, drink it every day. Until 27 November. Stopped, on 3% cider, 2 left. My friend is addicted to Vodka. Awesome woman, ex-mother, ex-wife slowly killing herself. Been in rehab 7 time, assylum once. Next prison? I need to stop altogether. I have tried so hard to help her. I think she has helped me instead.....

I too loved my wine....or at least I thought I did. I've realized I drank to take the edge off. I used rituals , like goblets and candles , to dress up my drinking. I'm sorry about your friend, but glad you're choosing a different path.
glad you found us, plenty of love and support here

I didn't realize there were this many of us winos. I always thought of an alcoholic as some old geezer drinking hard liquor out of a paper bag then passing out on the street.
I too loved my bottle of red wine every night. Loved the way it tasted, loved the way it made me forget about my troubles.
This is my first time trying to stop drinking. And now I love how I feel. After two weeks without wine, my depression is gone. I wake up in the morning raring to go. I never felt that way when I was drinking.
