    • About Me

      I'm an alcoholic, I'm a loving Nanna, decent mom, pretty good wife, have a few close friends and have lived a really great life with the exception of the times I've been drunk, hungover for several days, basically letting alcohol dictate my activities.

      From Cindylmh5 October 30

      I believe in my God as I see it/him/her. I never lost that, luckily. But I don't trust organised religion/faith too much....with good reason. Thanks for all your comments.

    • Close Alcoholism

      I have come to terms with the fact that I'm a functional Alcoholic. That is I function pretty well until I drink then I can't stop. I can not do this alone so will be attending AA meetings ASAP. I am here to hopefully gain knowledge of how best to stay sober.

      Treatments

      Campral Working / Worked
      It actually helped while I took it but I quit taking i
      Cold Turkey Working / Worked
