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.

Seems to me your doing all the right things. Take baby steps after the meeting. Put your chair away, bump into some one by accident. Intro your self start small it will happen. Call your sponsor and talk to her about it.

It's just going to be hard for a while love. Remember we came, we came to, we came to believe. I had a lot of bad memories too. So bad I couldn't even sleep! So I didn't! No one ever died of lack of sleep. When I was restless I read the BB, journaled, got to a meeting, called someone, read other AA literature, anything to get me OUT OF ME. Play with puppies, read a good book, don't sit in the past. Remember our disease is doing push ups outside waiting for us to drink. It will do whatever it deems necessary to make us so uncomfortable that we'll drink. We have a disease that uses our brains against us. Find the thing that helps - that makes you comfortable for now - and use it. Good luck!!! Oh yeah and let your sponsor know! lol

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...
