We've had a chat and had a good and meaningful talk. I think I want sobriety more than alcohol. I think i want things to get better.

Thanks everyone.
I hope you return and let us know how it is going. It is an ongoing process. If you spend sufficient time on this site, you will see people with 30+ years of sobriety STILL engaged with the sober community. It's that important to them.

Hi - you wrote "I need to cut out drinking full stop. But truthfully, that scares me."
The thought of never drinking again paralysis me with complete fear which is why I don't think like that any more and go with the one day at a time philosophy and tell myself each morning "today I won't drink, tomorrow who knows"

Some great advice here whatalaska

I'll just add how awesome it is to be me, 24/7 - I'm someone my partner can rely on, I'm engaged with life my family and my community, and I'm genuinely happy, even tho life is not all roses and rainbows.

I - literally - could never be any of those things as a drinker.
