If you're an alcoholic and really want to stop there are certain steps we who are sober for awhile needed to take. I needed to be honest with MYSELF about MY drinking. I needed to accept the fact that I cannot drink in safety and it's the first drink that leads me back to misery. There are a few, including this site, that offer support but none that can get us sober except ourselves. Some of us need detox and rehab, I used AA which has worked for about 80 years. Today we have choices to not be miserable any longer.

BE WELL

Hello

I came to this site yesterday (had previously joined but then figured I was fine) and it's been a great support getting through day one/half way through day two. It's the right place to be for people with addiction problems!

Welcome to SR, Falseemperor,

All you need is the true desire to quit drinking. One day at a time. We do this TOGETHER.

How about a meeting?

falseemperor 05-17-2014 08:35 AM

Hi Falseemperor and welcome. I'm so glad you are reaching out for help. If you don't mind my asking why is the plan to wait until next Friday to stop?

Because i dont feel strong enouf atm. Next friday ill go to mosque, ill pray and forgive. This one will be my last stand. I will give up alcohol i belive my own character. I dint anything bad in my life, i did lot of heroic moves. But this one, fight vs my own. I promissed to my family and gf already. I cant retreat.

Hawk07 05-17-2014 11:14 AM

Well, I'm glad your girlfriend and family know about this.. This forum is a wonderful place to get support. But if you're not ready now there is nothing anyone can say or do to change that. I say you are strong enough, you have to want sobriety more than the drink. And how about promising to do this for yourself as well as your family and gf.

Kallistia 05-17-2014 11:26 AM

I see nothing wrong with setting a date and mentally preparing yourself...just be prepared next Friday to say "today is the day!"
