Hi there
Pleased to meet you, greenfield. I think being here with us will really be helpful for you. It certainly lessened my anxiety when I first tried to quit. Prior to coming here I had felt all alone.
I'm glad you are ready to reclaim your life. For many years I refused to accept that I couldn't control my drinking. I tried to use willpower to manage it. I almost lost everything before I finally reached out for help. You'll never regret taking this step.

I have just joined the site today on the advice of a friend.
I need help. Through alcohol I have just lost my job, and I may well lose my wife. It has taken a long time to accept my problem but I'm doing my best to sort the mess out.
Please feel free to get in touch - I'd welcome talking to others with similar experiences as right now I'm kind of full of self loathing and stress.
Thanks

You are among friends here. Our little collective has heard it all and done it all, so pull up a chair and sit a while, also read some of the posts you will see some pretty awesome stories of recovery. Stay here and one day you will have one of those stories to tell.
Sincerely,

"When we reached the threshold of belief in a Higher Power, the one suggestion, more than any other, that encouraged us to step forward was that we choose a God of Our Own Understanding. we were relieved that we didn't have to conform to others beliefs.
This did make me chuckle a bit as I did exactly the same about 3 months ago. I basically just disappeared off the planet until they left me alone. Gee, the things we do!
