thanks all! for me it's been not just accepting my fate but embracing a lifestyle that is much less painful and not filled with shame and guilt. It's taken a lifetime to get to this point (somewhat sadly) but as they say "better late than never".
AA has been my road once again but without the resentment this time.
I now try to be happy for the things I have (health, friends, dignity etc) and not dwell on the one thing that I was obsessed with for so long, being that I can't drink like a normal person..
In the big picture it seems a fair trade off..
thanks again, this forum helped a lot in the beginning and I'm glad to be able to still come and share.

That makes a big difference.....I was blessed I knew nothing about it when I walked through the doors of AA....I had the gift of an open mind. As well as the gift of desperation....Happy Two Year Birthday to you!
