Sunday morning...
Sunday morning...
I won't go into all the details of my drinking and periods of sobriety in the past. Just wanted to say thanks for this site which I have been reading a lot over the last 2 weeks.
It's Sunday morning and I didn't have a drink last night, today is day 13 sober and it feels GOOOOD
My wife was out with friends last night, I had my mate staying over (we usually get hammered together) - he was drinking, my wife was drinking but I had no desire to do the same. Lots of crisps coke and pizza (L-Glutamine and vitamins!).
I woke up knowing I had not offended or hurt anyone, hadn't wet myself, nothing bad in fact. All good.
Anyway, thanks all
Just need to keep going a day at a time.

Good to see you! From a fellow Englishman!!
One day at a time indeed... "just for today I will not drink" I have over 7 months sober and clean with that philosophy now. That allows you to work on your 'recovery'.
Something that I picked up thismorning that kind of somes alcoholism up for me is that it's a "thinking" not a "drinking" problem. I use AA, SR and much wisdom from elsewhere too.

Stu, It's great to have you here with us. You have an upbeat attitude and that's important. When I came crawling into SR I was miserable and didn't dream I'd ever feel otherwise. My friends here proved I could live again without my crutch.
Keep coming back & tell us how it's going for you! We care.

Thanks for the welcomes folks - sorry for delay in replying but I had no internet for a few days.
Intention, yes I am working the programme and I know it works when you keep at it!
Neomarxist, I am a Scottish person living below the wall ha ha, but since I have been here most of my adult life I have no problem being a fellow Englishman although I am sure my Scottish friends and family might have something to say about that lol
Thanks again.

Hi Fandy,
If you Google L-Glutamine alcohol cravings you will get loads of info. You get it from health food places. I take 1000mg once a day but it depends on the individual. Took me a bit of trial an error to get to this. I find it really helps with the cravings, making them much more managable. No need for the old white knuckles any more.
First one that came up.
