Glad I found this forum.

If I had found it last month, maybe I'd be celebrating 3 months today.

Starting over, again, day 2.

Thanks, I quit the booze for 28 days last spring, before collapsing. Then I made it to 56 days later in the summer.

So, I have some experience, but the *want* never seems to go away.

I say any improvement is good improvement......you had a couple good goes at.......keep trying and eventually you will succeed. I had 52 days and 47 so far this year. I'm starting all over again myself. It's all about making good choices.

SR really helped me. I found it a lot harder to drink again when I saw in black and white what that one drink did to me, and to others here.

Read and post as much as you like. Get involved here - it really helps.

Check out the Class of October support thread too

Very happy to meet you, DirtyHippie. Glad you are with us.

It really helped me so much to be here with others who understood. No one else in my life really got what I was going through. It was comforting to read the words of support and encouragement. We're with you, and you can do this.
