You're right it is torture, pure and simple.

Feels so good to have stopped, honestly this time feels different. I just feel so certain that i've made the right choice.

I think even in my alcoholic brain I know that I gave "controlled drinking" the best shot I could give it. Explained away the few times I got REALLY drunk as just random events that could have happened to anyone.

When i decided to stop it was so black and white. I was actually drinking at the time. Got a glass of red wine in my hand, already had one setting in for the bottle and I just said No more.

Drank the glass i had (I mean obviously I'm English!!!!) and had no more.

Every other time I've stopped its because I've woken up in a hedge or something... but this it was mid drink.

The support on here truly is priceless. Means so much.
