      I guess I feel pretty strong in my sobriety. I don't need this as much as I thought I would. I feel great and in control and yes still sober

      Thank you so much for the encouragement! Its great to hear that you have quit smoking and drinking, I know it had to be difficult. I know that I have to quit before it gets worse, I don't drink around my kids at all, and I don't want to ever get to that point. But I know that I shouldn't be drinking as often as I do. Thanks again, and I'm here for you if you need a friend

      I have issues sleeping if it's not medicated with some sort of drug, not alcohol because that keeps me wired. Mostly Benadryl or something, but I'm trying to kick all drugs right now. I'm dangerously thin and it's just not healthy for me. It's so hard though. I've not been sleeping much at all.

    • Close Alcoholism

      I am a 49 year old women who is approaching the end of my career. I quit smoking 2 years ago. Since then and I don't know why my drinking has gotten out of hand. I never go one day without a drink of something. Usually end up with at least a buzz. 2 or 3 times a week get drunk. Recently I have mornings that I wake up and don't remember the night before. That scared me. I finally accept that I am an alcoholic. I have been sober now for 5 days, and I feel this strange sense of calm.

      Treatments

      Cold Turkey Working / Worked
      Just started 5 days ago but so far so good.
      Willpower Working / Worked
