i was never an alcoholic But i realized a many years back that i didnt need to drink to enjoy myself. I never looked back. I hope you wil continue to look forward to many better days.

Chado--we all know it begins with you and I agree the support is needed. I am so happy you are seeing this through. It is tough---but as always one day at a time. I found myself wishing I had more days sober...with alcohol the point of relapsing is around 120 days(or when most relapse) so they say. Best of luck Chado and I am behind you 100%--stay sober buddy--we have different addictions but it all comes down to the same thing--don't do it!! To many consequences. Health, wealth and family.

Really? The exact same...March 28th for you too? Wow...congrats to you to JC that is awesome my friend!!!

Do you go to AA meetings?

I go to NA meetings.....usually at least 3 a week....they are really great and make you feel a lot better knowing that you are not alone...

I am going to one tomorrow night to get my 60 day key tag...they have a system of key tags based on how long you have been clean and they go through the months...I can't wait to stand up and get it tomorrow while everyone claps and gives me a round of applause...it makes me feel like, "if they can do it so can I"!!!

Thats great jc...hang in there buddy....this life os so much better...I now have real friends in NA and a great relationship with my family (which was going out the window)...they are no longer disappointed in me and can actually say they are proud of me now!!! I feel great when I wake up every morning and I dont need to lie anymore as I have nothing to hide....everyday gets easier my firend!!!

No Chado i dont go to meetings, never been a thing i wanted to do. I however did find a web site much like this place but for people who are quiting or getting control of their drinking. I do converse with them via the site and email.

Meetings are great, I sometimes wish i could do them. I dont know why i dont want to, but i just dont.

You should feel great when you get that tag, giving up something like you did is NOT easy. I hope and pray for continued success buddy

Chad, Way To Go My Friend, So Glad Your Doing So Great, One Day At A Time That's The Way To Do It. Tomorrow Will Be A New Day, Hang In There, I Know You Will.

God Bless

One day at a time....take pleasure in the little things that may have gone unnoticed before.

[Chado1]

Thanks everyone!!!

JC...Can you do me a favour?

Can you please just go and check a meeting out....honestly my friend, quitting without meetings just makes things 10X harder, why make things harder on yourself....they are a great place to share but MOST IMPORTANTLY to "LISTEN" with people who are going through the same things you are, I bet you are thinking you dont want to share or be put on the spot and they dont do that there, if you dont want to talk you dont have and you can just simply listen the whole time. Nobody will judge you or anything I promise you that!!! It makes you feel at home and you always leave feeling great. If you dont go to meetings it makes things WAY more tougher....trust me I have seen people go back who dont go to meetings and that is why I am encouraging you because I don't want to see that happen!!!
