Time to change
I am 48 years old and have been a heavy drinker since I was 14. Recently, the hole damn thing finally sunk in. I was parting with friends and I put back a quart of vodka, by myself. The following two days I was completly incopacitated. The day after I stopped I had horrible DT's including a seizure.
I look at life and I see that I have been getting drunk every day for many years. I also dont want my kids to think that is the norm, and follow in my footsteps. ENOUGH!
You know, I feel so much better. Cravings are hard sometimes, but I can beat them. It doesn't hurt that I have lost 5lbs since i stopped. It's been two weeks since I have had a drink and I am starting to remember who I am and who I want to be. I also feel like my goals aren't unatainable.
I am glad you guys are hear to talk to about it.
