I'm coming back
Hello,
I came to this forum over year ago, and for a few weeks remained dedicated to coming on the forum and commenting and reading posts.
Then I went back to drinking again.
It just seems to get worse and worse. It's taken a toll on my body.
Before I was always complaining that drinking had ruined my relationships, finances, spirituality etc...
But now...it's affecting me physically. I am always tired, my skin looks terrible, my hair is thinner, heart burn, and I know my organs are taxed.
This scares me. And i've been thinking about it a lot. I cannot let my body fail me. I am not getting younger...
So from the depths of my soul, I have decided to say no to booze..and I want it to be for good. One day at a time.
I feel a sense of freedom saying this. I no longer want to be stuck in the web of alcohol addiction. Hello Recovery!!!
I am back!

It has now comes to the end of day 1 today.
Going to bed sober....
When I wrote the first post, I was determined, strong, optimistic - I do want sobriety.
But now that it's the end of the day - a mixture of sadness, remorse, and anxiety is creeping in.
I'm just going to breathe...this too shall pass.
Thanks for all the support!!

It's good to see you again Para, although it's sad you've been struggling.
Why not stick around here this time?
