Hi there!
Hi everyone, my name is Michelle. I'm from Melbourne, Australia.
I've made the decision to attain sobriety. I've been a two bottle of wine drinker for the past two years, and I honestly don't know how I'm alive. But it's affecting my life so much and I need to change it. I've lost friends, my work has suffered, my appearance has drastically suffered. I have to make the change. I've hurt people around me that I love, and I've hurt myself so much. I'm determined to succeed. I have to, to save my life

I'm actually terrified. I don't know how I'm going to hit that 5pm mark and not open my first bottle. I'm actually counting down the minutes, only 75 mins until that time. I'm so determined not to do it, I think tonight is going to be a rough night.
Alne1147, day 3 for you, well done! I'm going to be so happy if I get to day 3. You would be proud!

Thank you pinkdog. Sometimes you feel like you're the only person who has ever gone through it, it's good to know you're not alone, and can be supported by people who have been there before you.

Welcome Michelle. You will find lots of support here and probably many stories similar to your own....even though we feel so alone in the beginning.
I was drinking around the volume you were for many years. Now at day 34. Something unimaginable to me only a few weeks ago.
Look forward to hearing more from you.
