My first sober day in ages
I am so happy to find this site and blog ... Last night I made such a fool of myself...]
I have been fighting with myself over drinking issues for ages
Have had a drinking problem since the age of 18, during social/work events I get really really drunk, become loud, tell old tales., the worse thing I do not remember the next morning what I have done, said.
I went to hypnotherapy, it helped for 10 days, then a craving to drink came back.. I feel that I live not my life, and always afraid that I will be caught at some stage that I am not clever enough to the powerful job that I am doing, in my life it somehow always been that I am not good enough, not good enough ... Always worry, in an awful relationship, have been married for the last 16 years, last 8 were just a torture... Had a string of depression, then drinking, then panic attacks... Managed to deal with PANIC ATTACKS - LOVE myself for that, but drinking, is just can not get read of this disgusting way of living.... I will try to help myself once again... I am seriousl in this decision and would be very happy if I am supported THANK YOU

welcome to a fantastic community of support, and congratulations on your first day sober.
may it be the first day of many, the first day in a beautiful journey... may you find - like I have here - that this was a wonderful place to gain support and add to your sobriety toolkit.
you can do this.

So glad you are here Free! Last July I started reading SR and one day after that I stopped drinking, reading about people's victories is contagious. Hard times are part of the dialogue, telling it here is so helpful.
