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.

Keep It Simple
{Hazelden Meditations}
"The saints are the sinners who kept on going." - Robert Louis Stevenson
"The saints were told our program calls the "winners." We're told to "stick with the winners." Saints are just proven winners. They keep on believing in their higher power even when things get hard.
There will be times when we'll want to give up. We may want to stop going to meetings. We may want to get high. WE may wnt to stop working the steps.
To be winners in this program, we need to follow the example of the saints. This means we live a spiritual life. WE need to keep on going. One Day at a Time.
Prayer fo for the day
I pray I'll be a winner in this program. Higher power, be with me in the easy times and the hard times. Help me keep going.
Action for the day
I'll list people who are winners in this program. I'll ask one of them how he or she keeps going in tough times."

I feel so let down, by those around me. I'm constantantly in conflict. And I WANT TO GIVE, but a part of me still want to be tough, which is what Boleon is always on here saying. When do you just give up?
SOMETIMES I AM weak , and sometomes I need shoulder. Is that O.K.?
Unfortunately - the winners at that meeting were a bunch of of token-collectors who still had the power to choose to stay sober one-day-at-a-time like the dry-drunks do.
I wasted 2 years in AA trying to learn to be as diligent as those "hard drinkers" were. I eventually learned to identify with the "real alcoholic" on page 24 and that is when I realized the 10th step promise.
Diligence had nothing to do with it.
