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.

Has anyone tried these supplements? Do they give MGers more quality of life by improving memory and overall well being?Thanks!Barbel
That was the most I could do, somewhere along the line what I heard began to sink in my thick skull.
I will give you one simple saying and concentrate on this for the next 90 days of your sobriety.
"Meetings makers make it."
That is all you need to know for now. Others will give you better sayings, but never forget mine.
