I had quit for 3 months and was on cloud 9 but then a horrible depression took over and I started drinking again. Lots of people warned that this could happen but I didn't think it would so wasn't proactive With watching my moods and all of the sudden I'm in the hospital for a suicide attempt. I'm not at all trying to sound discouraging just a friendly warning to take extra care in charting your moods.

I am happy to report my drinking is not as bad as it was before I quit but alcoholicsm is sneaky so I'm not hopeful this will remain but trying my damnedest to remain strict.
