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 used to have this tendency when I drank, to think I was a brilliant philosopher and grab a pen and paper and begin writing what I believed was brilliant prose.
During moments of sobriety I would often find these crumpled bits of paper lying here and there with cryptic writing that seemed to slant and become less readable the further down the page it got....embarassing.
Anyway here is one I found recently that was actually pretty funny, although I can certainly see the drunken, philisophical me between the lines.....I thought I'd share.
My faucet is leaking, in a manner of speaking,
my thoughts dribble out unattended.
It is hard to believe, that with lack of reprieve, on this derelict mind I've depended.
In moments of bliss, it's seemed I could kiss, the genius that blooms in my skull.
But the flowers will seed, leaving nothing but weeds and my concience predictably dull...

That is funny in a not-so-funny sort of way. You're going to give Degzby a run for his money. Love your thoughts...

That is hilarious but my money's on Degzy for sobriety poetry. Come on, Betty Blue and rise to the challenge with the sharp focus of your sober mind...

Now Betty, that is a poem right there! And you did that drunk? I would buy you a quart of distilled liquid and sign you to contract! You're good!

Why thank you all for your kind comments, but I won't be giving up my day job anytime soo.....oh wait, that's right, I don't have one........

That is good...I liked it. I never got that far to actually write anything down...but I too thought "brilliant" thoughts after several glasses of wine and would share them with anyone that had the misfortune to pick up the phone!;)

Ahhh, the drunken dialing. I used to do that too.

I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...

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...
