Tonight is the night
I am not sure why I picked tonight but I did. Im not even sober at this moment. Every night I tell myself that this is the last night, I can't afford it either financially or physically...and yet every night I do it. I have quit before, once for almost 1 year, and sporadically in between. Most recently was 2 weeks long after a week long bender and began going through withdrawals and vomited blood and took myself to the hospital. but like I said that lasted 2 weeks and then "Oh why not". I've half heartedly worked the 12 steps and read the big book, but hey I'm smarter than they are. Lately I find myself at the convenience store every night after work with 18 stones in my hand. I know exactly where this lifestyle is heading, and every morning I tell myself this is the end of it, and every night when I get off I tell myself I lied.
I definitely need to be done. My physical health...and my wallet...cannot take it anymore. I want to be done, but we all know it takes more than just want to. I only talk to 2 people about it, because those 2 people are the only 2 people in my life that know what I am going through and are not judgmental. I live in a small town and I refuse to go to AA for personal reasons, so I hope I am placing hope here, and in my higher power.

You can do it! I could not even picture going a day without drinking...every day was the same..start around 4;30 or 5...just sit in a chair or go to the bar and drink until 9 and then go to bed and have a lousy night's sleep. Weekends WAY worse...
For Decades!!!
Today just got through 9th day without a drop. If I can do it You can do it!
1st step is always the hardest
