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.
What works best for you?
Taking responsibility for my own behavior works best for me.
Some people have suggested that I am doing this alone. Nothing could be further from the truth. I have a strong network of family and friends who support me.
I'm doing just fine.

This can be accomplished any number of ways and a return to drinking as Deogee noted sadly is all too common no matter the path used. Hell, I may even threaten to punch a nurse in the nose for 3 shots of whiskey on my deathbed. I'd be in good company on that one, eh???
If one falls 7 times the important thing is to get up the 8th time. At my best, I look to the successes I had/have in the past/present and build on them and learn from my mistakes in all areas of my life...
Every day sober goes into the sober bank never to be lost...Every day drunk is walking the tight rope of self destruction and possible death from a toxic substance (well toxic in sufficient quantities like I want to consume it)...
Talk about a soap box huh Okiyoe? (LOL) Better admit I may be wrong and you may be right, now...Who wants to be a narcissist, anyway?
