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.

How a can, bottle and glass of liquid can change your life for ever, i have been sober for 7-1/2 days, 1/2 of this day i deside to drink the liquid again thinking it will be all right, just wanting to numb out for awhile, also wanted to attend church tomorrow, somthing i haven't done in years but now i won't... i feel like a fraud once again... i frauded myself into thinking i could do it alone and with the help of the internet...i have been learning lots though, just not enough... i need to get out around f2f people and stop being the coward i am and admit i am a alcoholic,,, sure it is easy to say now. noone is looking at me, noone knows me.. All i know is that the ones who don't drink anymore at all.... i look up to you and i understand its hard work...and i understand its somethng you work at everyday of your lives.... and im going to get sober One day at time... i will keep coming back.

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...
Hi I'm cdaw alcoholic from Ontario...
"About this slip business----I would not be too discouraged. I think you are suffering a great deal from a needless guilt. For some reason or other, the Lord has laid out tougher paths for some of us, and I guess you are treading one of them. God is not asking us to be successful. He is only asking us to try to be. So I would not stay away from A.A. through any feeling of discouragement or shame. It's just the place you should be. Why don't you try just as a member? You don't have to carry the whole A.A. on your back, you know!
"It is not always the quantity of good things that you do, it is also the quality that counts.
"Above all, take it one day at a time."
I should mention that the man's name was: Bill Wilson. The quote was a letter published the the book As Bill Sees It. page 11. He does make sense if you ask me.
I started with the internet, its a good place to start,a point where you begin to admit you had a problem, the internet was not enough either but it gave me the strength to move on and find greater support, of which there is plenty.
So hey, stop beating yourself up, get over this small slip, pull your self together and years here we come, also do try and get to church tomorrow, you may feel a little grogy, but no one will hold that against you, and it could be the f2f you looking for.
Also thereis of course you Doctor, AA and lots of other things around, I tink what you have learnt and admited that this is not an easy road, its not but it can be a great one.
SO do keep coming back
