I am also a member of that club....

Then I became a member of the "Dear Vodka, I'm leaving you..." Club.

And then the "Vodka? Who cares. I don't even give it a thought" club.

And the "Life is so good.... who could ever need Vodka" club.

You're on the right track.

It did not make you anything. You (as I) made a conscious decision to drink it(until it was probably unconscious) and it is within you to not drink it. After some clean time you'll wonder what the attraction was.

You can get through this. Good luck!

Tomorrow is a new day Gina, we have all been where you are. Many of us, myself included aren't far removed from those days. There are lots of great people on SR to help you through this through their experience.

I've been there.

Secret efforts didn't work for me.

I hope you find your way before it gets REALLY bad....

I'm not a big vodka drinker but I still loathe it. It was my mum's favourite poison growing up, still is infact. She would always drink it because she thought it had no smell and thought she could get away with it without us kids knowing.
Ofcourse I could always smell her from across the room when she'd been drinking.

I'm glad you're here with us and have decided to start posting.
