Hi. This is my first time posting here. I just randomly found this forum while searching for some kind of help/solution to get this monkey off my back. I have had a problem with drinking ever since I started drinking. (10 years) I wouldnt call myself a chronic abuser but I always seem to fall into binges that leave me feeling like I am in hell. After a few days or even a couple of weeks of staying sober this eveil monster always creeps back.

I have read many of the posts here and it seem like a very warm, supportive, and inspirational place to be. I hope I can find what I need to beat this S.O.B the hell out of my life. And hopefully inspire others to do the same. Thanks for your time.

Welcome Champ... I can relate to what you guys have said. I didn't drink everyday, but when I did it was one hell of a bender that would leave me sick and hungover for a minimum of two days. But, hopefully you'll find the answers and support you need here at SR.

Hang loose, Doc.

Ya. thats the way it seems to go for me aswell. Binge drink for a weekend, feel like hell, and recover until I'm sure that it wont happen again. And then it always does. I am so completely tired of going through this cycle over and over. its enough to drive one mad!!

And your plan is???

AA works great for me!

Sick and tired of being sick and tired? I know that one too! Get yourself some good amount of sober time and see how you feel. The liquor stores are not going anywhere.. they will always be there for you if you should decide to go out and poison yourself again.

Ha ha. Ya, those booze stores arent going anywhere. Too bad.

For now I plan on just taking it one day at a time. Try to keep myself busy with other things and try and change up my routine a bit so I can get out of this rut. And stay positive! I'm way to good to let this bring me down. Thanks everyone!
