What is cutback coach?

It's an App that assesses your drinking habits if you aren't abstaining completely in order to keep you accountable and mindful if you drink. I just came across it and was wondering if anyone else had heard about it. Not sure if this is the appropriate group to ask about it or not.

Oh okay. No I have never tried it. But I know for me I can't drink. Chaos come about when I drink lol

Understood

Thank you for replying!

You're welcome

Welcome to the group Consumed?
Are you trying to abstain completely or just cut back? Just wondering.

~~~Peace~~~

Thank you for the welcome! I am trying to cut back. Finding it difficult during these times...

Anyone still here?

ill try it....just cant quit..it totally sucks
im tired of this freaking rollercoaster
ill let ya know if it helps

I registered but haven't started it quite yet. I'm on day 3 of a 10 day total detox. I plan on starting the program once I'm off. If you try it let me know. I, too, am tired of the rollercoaster.

I tried to cutback for about 25 years and as hard as it was for me to hear... I can’t. I proved this time after time.

It honestly just pissed me off and I would say f it and drink like I did. Lots. Stupor. Fool.

I got tired of the merry go round of drink remorse, guilt, shame, quit, drink remorse shame guilt. drink remorse shame guiltdrink remorse shame guiltdrink remorse shame guiltdrink remorse shame guilt.

Normal drinkers have 1-2 and get sleepy ... decide to stop. I normally had 1-2 in the shower getting ready.

1-2

If a app worked don’t you think that would be so widespread it was used by everyone.

To be honest I also wanted a magic bullet back in 2012 I went to the doctor he prescribed a prescription for some naltrexone and then after that didn’t work I ask for a prescription for antiabuse

After about seven years now, I have seen hundreds of people come and go through the room that I got Sommer and The One percent that make it, realize the reason that they were drinking was because of a reaction to alcohol that normal people don’t have. It sounds simple but if you can distance yourself from the bottle and then find an alcoholic who can show you The way to handle life without a crutch then you can go back to living life and attending parties where people are losing... boozing.

Alcohol IS a drug. Very powerful. Very addictive.

Thank you for sharing! I really appreciate your words, insight and experience. Works in progress we all are. Taking it one day at a time. Going strong on the detox...so far. One day at a time!

Good on you for trying to do something about it, that's the first step right there, for me personally, I can't have the first drink, if I do I will never stop, I have an allergy in the body and a mental obsession in the mind - being sober has shown me a way of life that I never believed was possible - being straight from drugs and alcohol beats being wasted every day 100 % - good luck with your detox, take care Lisa
