Today I start over.

Today I start on day one for the thousandth time.
I am desperate I even got on my knees and prayed for help and I don't have much faith. But Like I said I am desperate.

I will be here lots today.
Thanks

It's good to see you, Axis and I'm glad you're ready to stop drinking.

Do you have a plan to make this work?

I had what felt like a thousand day ones as well. I know it can wear you down, but you need to see this as a new day and opportunity. You can do it but you need to be willing to get through the early days. It gets much much better.

Asix,

Blind faith in a higher power worked for me.

The anxiety and mental anguish have slowly, but steadily, decreased.

SR is filled w angels.

Thanks.

I'm glad you're still trying, but 'maybe today' is probably not going to do it. Your addiction is a lot stronger than that, so you need a solid plan and lots of motivation to make this work.

Read around here and be inspired to do this today for sure.

Only you hold the keys to unlock the door to freedom. It won't happen drinking every day. Wish you the best, guitar man.

You need a plan six, even if to start with the plan is simply no alcohol in my house and I refuse to go get more?
