Well, kinda not sure what to say................but, I do know this - don't be ashamed to vent here. That's what we're here for. This is the only support group I have - besides my family.............and its the best thing in the world.

As with everyone else, I agree that you have to make up your own mind to do it. With that said: let me tell you what I know about 7 days of sobriety.

1- I feel better than I have in a LONG TIME.
2 - I've lost 4 LBS in a week by doing NOTHING different.
3 - I have been able to determine what friends are worthy and what friends are not.
4 - My cravings get less and less by the day. And I realize that I don't really even want it. Nonetheless, the first 4 days were the hardest. (My advice - even if you don't go to AA - their theory of 24 hours really works - if you make it 24 hours......then you hit restart and do it again & again!)

I hope you get there. I know what its like to be in that vicious cycle of hangovers, then the high when you don't drink for one day, then you drink again to bring yourself down.

I saw that you have children............a wonderful thing that I have not had the blessing of YET. Focus your energy. Think about how wonderful it would be to be on that eternal high without alcohol and REALLY enjoy every moment with them. Draw upon your strength.

WE ARE HERE FOR YOU!
