:ghug3 Welcome back! Congrats on your sober week. It does get better day by day tho there are some rough spots. Just get thru them, and every day, by not drinking today.

It's ironic,

Above your post was one entitled "5 Months" (he meant clean and sober for 5 months). If that's not a sign from God as to what you should do, I don't know what is!

Your choice, if you're sick and tired of being sick and tired, do something about it. It is that easy.

I was sick and tired of being a drunk and 240 pounds. 6 months later I am 180 pounds and sober for over 3 months. My life has changed for the better and my relationship with my wife have never been better.

It's your choice, it always has been!

cb - What great news. At the end of my drinking career, every time I picked up I was in danger. Nothing was predictable anymore, and I was going insane. It was never fun or relaxing the way it once was, and never could be again.

You can do this, and have a whole new life - filled with hope & joy.

You can do it cb. It takes strength and will power yes, but how good it feels to be able to face yourself in the morning without fear and regret.

WWWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWW! I cant believe this is my old thread. You get better and think you can handle drinking normal. Nope. I am back on the road to recovery and this time it is to save my life. I have driven drunk, hit a car, and driven drunk with other people in the car. I can not do this anymore. I am on day 3. God help me this time...............

Very happy to see you back here, cb.

It sounds like you're really ready to be sober. I had to be convinced I couldn't ever touch another drop - and unfortunately it involved dui's and other terrible things. I have over 5 yrs. now, cb - and you can do it too. We are with you all the way.
