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.
I keep thinking the last bottle of wine will actually be the last one. It never is...I go along feeling great for a week, or two sometimes, but inevitably drink that damn bottle of wine again - three in two days. Now I've finally scared myself into doing something beyond wishful thinking and unanswered prayers. I've GOT to stop, or I will die. It's finally come home to me.
Why is it so difficult to ask for help.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I'm in the same place. Good luck.
That last bottle of wine is the most awfull bloody thing, took me 4 months to finish mine, gee it must have been a big bottle.
I kept drinking it, saying right last one, and then again and agin, in the end I cried for help and I found it through my Doctor, through the AA, detox and therapy.
Its all out there if you ask for it, and it sounds to me your asking for it right now.
Do some more research, sharing here is great but you will also need more help and support, grab it now while you can
Its 2 years now since I had a glass of wine, and oh boy I am so happy.
Your heading in the right direction, you can do it come and join us

In my case it ment I had to admit to someone Face To Face that I had a problem that I would need there help in order to get any where with it...Surender in order to achieve hope.
I've gone to AA before- I know it is supposed to be good to listen to others talk, but I get wrapped up in their pain and just feel it with them - I come out very depressed.
And therapy is so damned expensive - I can't afford it
So I called an old friend and he will 'babysit' me for awhile - I will call him every nite and just talk.
I also have a subliminal hypnosis CD - how do you know if this stuff works?
Please someone tell me if I am setting myself up for failure again. I just can't do this anymore.
I am right along with you. It is so frustrating admitting the problem to yourself but not being able to suck up your pride and talk about it openly to others. I'm not a strong enough person to rely on just myself to cut back. I need help too.
Good luck to you.
A.A. and treatment saved my life, now am happily in full time recovery...
Good luck, you can do this!
Peace, Laura
