All dried out and back on the wagon

I am back and this time I mean business (I hope). Day three and not feeling too bad. This is the easy part though. My drinking spiralled out of control again. So tired of feeling weak, ashamed and guilty. Hope you're all being strong and successful in 2013.

You mean business this time, that's great. What changes have you made with this effort to assure you don't fall back down?

I have made several changes recently. I broke up with my boyfriend/drinking partner. I got a wee puppy to have some real responsibilty in my life and I am hopefully going to be starting on Natrexone shortly to help with the cravings. Hope all these make a difference. I am also still seeing all my support workers regularly.

I'm glad there are plenty of seats on this wagon as I, too, had to keep crawling back on again! I think the view looks much better on the wagon then it did off. I'm sorry you ended a relationship, but I'm really happy to hear that you lost your drinking partner.

Hi Island, glad you're back, I'm not exactly new, but was away for a while. Anyway, I am happy to be here, and glad you are too.
