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.
...Anna. I'm sorry to have deceived you all, but it turns out I'm not an alcoholic after all.
I am a chocoholic. I can't stop eating Dove Dark Chocolate Promises. All I can think about is my next chocolate. My hands are shaking. I've begun hiding it from my husband. I don't WANT to ruin my appetite, but I cannot handle the obsession and the craving.
I have no desire to drink. All these years, it seems chocolate was really what I wanted, what I needed.
...Obviously kidding.
You know how PISSED I will be if chocolate gets me through my booze obsessions and it took me this long to figure it out?
I really do have ZERO desire to drink at the moment. WTF?

Do you eat chocolate alone?
Do you make sure there will be chocolate at social gatherings before you attend, even if it is just ice cream with chocolate jimmies?
Do you hide the signs of your chocolate consumption -- wiping the tell-tale stains off your mouth and hands before seeing people?
Have you thought about switching to M&Ms to hide the melted chocolate stains?
Do you rationalize having the Snickers bar, telling others that you are only eating it because you like the caramel and nuts?
If you answered yes, to any of these questions, you have a problem and can't beat this on your own. The first step is the hardest, but the most important one.
Get all of your chocolate, yes, even those hidden Dove bars, don't you DARE forget those. Put them in a box, wrap it up nice and tight. Say good-bye to them.
And send them to me.
For me, it's cake.....God how I love cake...hahaha!
It's really funny cause I never even ate birthday cake before now. Just wasn't my thing....
chocolate covered strawberries...mmmmmm........
Ya know what? The first 3-4 months after I quit drinking, I craved turkey sandwiches!! No joke, how weird is that? I ate a lot of turkey & cheese sandwiches with mayo & lettuce. Wasn't till much later that I developed my "cake obsession". :)
Must go to Dairy Queen today for a Raspberry Truffle Blizzard..mmm..NO NO NO! Bad Shelly! :)
