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.

Oh, you will love it, I'm sure!! They are wonderful.

Weather is supposed to be nice here in NY this weekend, and hoping to get to the beach on Sunday.

Enjoy your retreat and let us know how it went.

I will look forward to hearing about it when you get back... Have fun.

Maybe I will look for something in my area. I think I would like to do a retreat...

Enjoy!

My first retreat was entitled 'Came to Believe'. I didn't really think about what it would be about as it said about doing the 12 steps in the weekend.

I was open enough to stay yet had no incline to go back to that particular one.

Let us know how it goes.

That "self sabotage" is a bitch!! Don't do it! It's not worth it. Keep an open mind and enjoy....you will return with serenity like you've never known before....IF you allow it. It's up to you. :)
