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 have a day off work today. So having a leasurly late breakfast Watching. Breakfast tv Those in the UK Will have at least heard of the Jeremy Kyle show. Though few will admit to watching on a regular basis. Me included.
However ocasional viewing maybe ok. Basically it features very dysfunctional family's and people who have various drug /alcohol physical or mental abuse problems.
Today's programme featured a guy who had been
Drinking for about 30 years and recently using heroin. His ex wife and children were brought on stage to testify how totally selfish and without
Any sense of responsibility his life had been. A lot of tears from his 18 year old daughter.At this point the presenter of the show confronts him
"Do you want to do something about this" yes he replys
So the whole onterage are whisked back stage to a waiting car with A top
Rehab clinic staff offering him recovery Sadly he pulls off his sound mike
And blurts "I want out of here"Despite the presenter saying This is a one off oportunity It's here for you now but he walks away.
The power of addiction
This is not new to me but sometimes just to see it acted out in reality is a powerful reminder to me of how very fortunate I am to be in recovery
Today I have a day of leasure. Going off to play tennis with a guy a lot younger than me So that will be big fun! Just amazing to be on this side of
