Cool first post, finally

I've been reading posts here at SR for quite a while, wanting to join, but never did.
I am at work, typing this and can't really say what I want to. Maybe later from home.
In short I've quit drinking a thousand times or more and end up at it again. I made five weeks a short time ago, felt great, etc, and still managed to fail. Again.
This time, I want to succeed. Long term is my problem. Thanks for all the wonderful info and posts here at SR. When I have a chance, I would like to share my story with you.

Thumbs up

Thank you all for the encouragement.
I hope someday I can be of help to you as well.
At work now, struggling with my self-inflicted hangover, looking forward to getting home later on, shower, eat and go to bed early.
Looking even more forward to waking up tomorrow, refreshed and NOT hungover. Yeah!

Welcome to the family lunar. It sounds like you're ready to do this - we know you can.

It'll be wonderful to wake up refreshed, not foggy & fuzzy. It feels so good to be free of it.

Hi Lunar - SR is incredibly helpful for me in very early sobriety too. Someone suggested using the 24 hour club sign up sheet (in Newcomer's Daily Support Threads) - I like it - it sort of keeps me accountable.

Welcome lunar. Glad you decided to post. Don't let the thousand other times bring you down, it only takes one final time to be quit for good and then you never have to go through it again - you can do it!
