Let's see; you are 5 hours ahead of US EDT so it is 1:07 pm your time - less than two hours to your appointment. Three bottles of wine in - Do you have someone to take you to the clinic?

I hope you have some help getting there Mike.
Can you make a cuppa tea or coffee or something instead of drinking any more?

As scary as this is, I really think some professional help might be just what you need?

Best wishes - keep us updated

Being honest with yourself is needed in order to recover I believe. So you are on your way. I hope you seek the help you need.

You are just as important as any other patient at the clinic, mje. Have you tried in-patient rehab?

alcoholics are just as entitled to the NHS as anyone else

Try not to panic...getting help is a *good* thing

I'll check up on you my tomorrow - best of luck

You are not a waste of space.

We all belong on this earth, exactly where we are.

I'm so glad you are going to the dr today. I hope that if you stop drinking today, your prognosis will be a better one. And, you will feel good about yourself.

Please let us know how it goes.

Alcoholism is cunning; it sneaks up behind us and bites in the butt. My bet is you still have a chance to turn this around, Mike, but NOW is the time. I have heard stories of some pretty amazing liver regeneration but it has meant not a single drop of alcohol, ever.

You can do this, Mike. You absolutely, positively CAN. YOU are worth it.

I know I can't magically take away the fear and panic you have right now but fast forward this tape. After you get the help you need and deserve, you will be able to look back and realize that this day was nothing to fear. This day will be the beginning of taking away the fear and panic.

Breathe.Let it all go and accept the help. I am so happy that you have this appt because I know this is the beginning of good things for you.

Good. Now don't pick up a drink until then!

Glad you went. You can turn this around. You don't have to drive off the cliff.
