SOBERITY a Gift.
Already i feel better, i found this site this morning when i was feeling like saying to hell with Soberity!! Now i feel like WoW i'm lucky i am an alcoholic, I have been looking at my children, I appreciate what i have for the first time in 22years, My kids are young (15,7,4) i have been a "dry drunk" several times, but alway fell off the wagon, but its simple...................Communication............ ........talking and listening. It works when your ready to open up to it. I honestly feel giddy like i have discovered something nobody else know about. I have realised that my problems now i bring them on my self by still trying to hang on to the old me the liar, the cheat, priding my self on having no conscience etc. Slowly sometimes and other times it hits you like a blt out of the blue things fall into place when you are willing to let go and open your heart to change. Soberity is a Gift and we can never stop unwrapping that gift because the layers we find are truly amazing......we find our selves. I heard at a meeting last night the age we start drinking at(15 for me) is the mental age we are when we stop (37 now) i think that's cool i get a second chance to feel mentally young, to develop .......................THIS is what i need to hold on to when the demons in my head start talking again

Give your kids a hug and tell them you love them every day. Keep coming back to SR and welcome to the family.
