New here

Hello, My last drink was after the fireworks on the 4th of July a few days ago. I haven't had a drink or cigarette in 3 full days. I need to quit them at the same time because they trigger each other. (If that makes sense) I have always been a binge drinker but some REALLY bad things have happened as a result :-( & I only see darkness in the future if I don't quit. I'm hoping to use this site to get support. Thx!

Wishing you a warm welcome. The future doesn't need to be dark.

Well done on 3 days quitting both addictions!

Again, Thank so much! I'm hoping to never swallow a drop of alcohol again. It's killed many people I love and care about and I don't want to be next. Scary stuff. :-(
