I am not a daily drinker, what I am though is a problem drinker. When I drink, I drink a lot, I don't know when to stop and I honestly think I am having a blast until the next day when I wake up feeling very guilty and sorry for myself. I have tried, many times, over the years, to quit, and sometimes I have been successful for as much as 2 months and then I am back to boozing it up once a week or more. But I am here coz I boozed it up maybe three times this week and each time I woke with that feeling of hopelessness and guilt. I lost my brand new phone, I just feel like hell all around. I am a month away from getting even closer to being 40 and I want this to stop. I want off this train, I want to get sober, and I could really do with some support, which is why I am here in the first place.

Hey littlecarmen! Well you came to the right place if your looking for support...glad your here. Admitting you have a problem is the first step...After that you can further your own recovery. A few words of wisdom...As alcoholics we are powerless over alcohol once we take that first drink. One drink will lead to many. This is the one way we can control of alcoholism. Knowing that for myself to drink would be complete destruction of everything and everyone around me keeps me sober. I hope this helps you. You can do this! Hang in there. Have faith in yourself.
