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.

Hey I'm only a couple days sober and I deperately want to stay that way. I've been an alcoholic for over 15 years now and it has messed up so many things in my life. I am a single mom of a 15yr. old boy who I"ve raised alone and it has affected him too in a big way. I really want to make things better and learn to live sober from now on. It's just so hard when it's all I've known for so long now. Picking up the pieces, cleaning the mess I've made, trying to be a real mom from now on, dealing with my son's distrust and anger.I keep falling down over and over again and I can't take it anymore. I NEED to get healthy in every way and find stability and security and fulfillment. I'm unemployed at the moment. Haven't been able to work due to alcohol and being depressed. Need to get a job. I feel I've messed up my son's life and it's hard to help him and be there for him when I'm a full time job at the moment. But he needs me. I have so much debt now, fines etc. No driver's license. No friends. My son doesn't even have friends right now and it being home'schooled because he wouldn't go to school. Everything is scary. I need God, I need support and fellowship. I'm doing what I can to take steps to better things.

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...
Look in your local phone directory for the toll free number to aa. You could also search for WI intergroup, I don't know what part of the state you're from but if you search for intergroup in your state you'll be able to find the number, or list of meetings in your area. Best wishes to you.
Learning for starters that I'm not depressed. I'm an alcoholic. There is a difference and no wonder why treatment for depression doesn't work when I'm not depressed. I'm an alcoholic.
I'm never where I want to be because I'm an alcoholic subject to magical and wishful thinking which frustrates and upsets me. The world doesn't work that way.
I don't know who I am because I've been acting my whole life as anything and anyone other than an alcoholic. The only person I've fooled is myself. Know thyself is the key to success and happiness.
