Newcomer online but not to recovery

Hi All. Once again a find myself trying to get into recovery. Seems like a constant battle. Time that I faced up to the facts of what my drinking is costing me. This time it is my marriage. My wife wants me out and says that I can only see my boys when she can guarantee I am sober. Well, if that is not an incentive, I do not know what is. But I am still afraid that it is not incentive enough. I need this to work.

Hey man - I'm in a similar boat. I've broken promises so many times about drinking that it's possible I might never get the trust back. Wishing you all the best.

Welcome to the forum. Alcoholism for sure destroys everything in its path, including marriages and families.
I think this is for sure one hell of a call to get yourself into rehab asap and a rock solid recovery path in place, but it sounds like there is some hesitation in your post that you would rather keep going down your destructive path, which I really hope isn't the case.

Hi and welcome tryingtogether

You'll find a lot of support and good ideas here.

Apart from joining here have you thought yet on what else you might do to stay sober?
