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.
One of the most fantastic realizations that I have discovered as well as promised by the BB is that once you have made your inventory and made amends is that you can look the world square in the eye and know that you are clean and they have nothing on you. I am still going through hell on earth with my wonderful custody battle and the finacial destruction that it brings. I can face any and all accusations from the ex and feel, know that no wrongs can hit me square in the chest. I understand clearly how in the past resentments and embarassment, fear, often played a role in my drinking. Living right and doing the next right things have done wonders for me and my peace of mind. Serenity at last, if not for brief moments has been a promise come true. Anyone else expeirencing this??
I'm not hiding from events or situations any more. I'll admit that on some days I still feel like it, but on the whole I can face them head on. For a couple of years, I was letting my employees handle customer complaints- things I should have been handling. I was a weenie and I was hiding. That's because I was carrying too much damn baggage. The longer I stay sober, the more I can deal with those situations.
