Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.
One week today!
I feel fine today. Was up at 5am no problem, and at work at 5:30am. Didnt need to be there till 6. I was just full of energy.
My face is really thinning out, I really like it.
Went to another meeting last night, helped me stay strong.
The next 2 days worry me. My son and I are going up north for a couple of days (hes 9). Up north is where I most associate drinking. My alcoholic family all have cabins up here, and for as long as ive been around they come up here to "get away" and drink.
Like i posted before, driving with a drink in your hand up north is a way of life.
I feel strong, and I right now im not real worried; also my family wont be up it will just be my son and I.
Im a bit concerned about how i'll feel when I get up there though. There is alcohol in the cabinet, and there are no AA meetings to run to.
I will pray hard. Wish me luck and I will post again on Friday or Saturday.

. With each in-breath, I think, Welcome. With each out-breath, I think, Thank you. That leaves me fluctuating between acceptance and gratitude, which I recognize as two of the integral principles of Alcoholics Anonymous.... By welcoming God into my day and then thanking him for being in it, this meditation continually blesses me."
