I'm ready

Like my name says, just in denial. I've been an alcoholic of the last, almost twenty years. I dance around it like I don't have a problem because I don't drink every day. But when I do drink it's to the point of blacking out every time. I need help. I'm sick of living like this. I had almost a year sober and it was the most wonderful time of my life. I'm so tired of planning my life around getting drunk. Missing out on fun things because in hungover or I would rather drink. So sick and tired of being me.

This place is amazing. Hang in there with us. I am only 8 days sober and never dreamed I would ever be able to say that. It has not been easy....at all....but the rewards have already been incredible. And i could not have done it without this website. Just don't drink....just for today. And keep checking in here.

That's just how I felt Indenial. The lure of the booze was too strong for me but I managed to pull away and a long time ago I did 8 months then caved but wish I'd stuck with it as years down the line and many regrets I've stopped.

Andy, yes, life is so much better without hangovers etc.

Glad you've decided to change your life for the better, Indenial618! What did you do before to maintain sobriety for a year?

Thank you all fr always welcoming me back with open arms. I made it through day one with a terrible panic attack but nursing myself with lots of water and some healthy food. I was open and honest with family memebers and they are really supportive. I was in no condition to leave the house today but I do have to work tomorrow and afterwards I'm going to attend a meeting. I haven't been to one in 9 years. I'm also going to check out an outpatient program and post here often. I need this so bad. Thanks for the support.
