Clarification
When I say "I give up", I mean TRYING to drink. It never ends well...and if it does on a day... it gives me an excuse to drink on another day. Sooner or later...it ends badly.
Oh. Well, I never tried to drink. Actually I was an expert drinking, a lot, daily, for years.
Hmmm. Are you saying you were trying to moderate your intake? I never bothered as I was an all in or all out type of drinker and I was all in, and in a pathetic state, when I found SR.
Now snails, I tried eating them once. Eegads, that was nasty.

Welcome Philly glad you have joined us, there is definitely a solution. Love this site and AA. There is a thread where you can sign up each day committing to 24 hour sobriety, sorry don't know how to put a link, hope you can find it easily, it is amazing. Good luck on your journey x
So, you ready to quit?

Welcome Philly! Don't give up. Sobriety is a choice. Make a decision to take your life back and do it. It is so worth it.
Congrats on taking the first step. I felt that way too. So so so tired of trying to drink like a "normal" person. It was exhausting. I finally gave up and accepted I'm not normal when it comes to alcohol. I used to be. And then I wasn't. It happened that fast. There is an invisible line and I crossed it. And so, here I am. Almost one and a half years later. Sober you can do it too!!!
