Hello Friends!

This site has helped me so many times, so today I decided to come out of hiding and become part of this wonderful forum.

I am on my 12th day of quitting alcohol. So far, I don't think about it that much. ~Only certain hours in the late afternoon, but I make myself a cup of hot chocolate or have a root-beer.
This is my 2nd time trying to quit. Last year, I got to 6 months sobriety. Then a death in the family sent me back to the drink.

I feel like this time I will succeed! Especially with your help and the comfort knowing others are going through a similar struggle.

I was diagnosed with 1st stage cirrhosis, so I HAVE to quit and will. I am very ashamed that it came to this. I don't tell anyone about it.

Thank you for being here.

Great to meet you, lunaloo! (I see you live in a very nice place )

Being here helped me so much. I had no one else in my life who really understood what I was going through. I'm sorry for your health concerns. 12 days is wonderful. You can do this.

Welcome to SR lunaloo and congratulations on 12 days

Your recent six months shows that you can do it.
