Back for good!
I was here a couple years ago and failed after 6 months or so of being sober. I continue (until today) to consume a chilled bottle of Chardonnay on a nightly basis, beginning at 6:00PM, and weed around the clock. I've managed most days feeling acceptably well but sure don't sleep good, and that takes a toll. I've just gotten to accept it all as normal. Now not caring has kind of taken over and is spreading to other areas of my life. I just can't continue like this. On the 16th, I hit 62. And I thought I was done with this on my 60th birthday, but it didn't last so I'm back. I have many reasons to explain why I drink, as I'm sure we all do. But this lifestyle is killing me and I have way too much to live for. Excellent job, retirement in a few years, 9 grandkids and just learned #10 is on the way, have a great family and church and too much more. So I plan to spend the six o'clock hour right here for the forceable future. May God richly bless you all for being here!

Hi Dee,
I remember you. Thanks. I may try to get to a recovery meeting at church. Other than that, no real plan. I really do ok when I don't drink. I do it because it's habit, not because I want to or enjoy it. Pretty stupid eh?

Welcome back MtnSeer. Hitting the meeting at your church doesn't sound like a bad idea at all. Coming in SR during your though times also sounds like a good plan. I also drank towards the end not because I wanted to but because I needed to. Best of luck and stick around
