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.
To me the definition of faith has always been; when you have to step from the light into the darkness, you know that one of two things will happen, either you will find firm footing or you will grow wings and fly!
I'm getting out of the place I live in. It was abusive when I was drinking and more so now that I am not. I have been a virtual prisoner in this house for two years and he's trying to make my world smaller yet.
There currently is no room at the battered woman's shelter. That in itself is a pretty sad thing. I know that my higher power and I can keep a roof over my head.
I'm so grateful to my good friend. A simple emailed message. "don't worry, we'll get you out of there no matter what, you did nothing wrong!"
I'm still crying with gratitude. I'm still scared shitless though. Please say a prayer for me, I want so much to be safe.
Thank you for my sobriety!

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...
I was told that I shouldn't do anything drastic for the 1st year of my sobriety. I told my FEMALE SPONSOR at the time about him and she said I needed to stay even with that going on and him trying to run me over while I was at an AA Meeting! SHE WAS INSANE!!!
I'm so happy for you! So good to have good friends. My prayers are with you, because I know how hard it is to get away...even when you aren't there any more!
I did get a restraining order against him, but that only seems to help if they find you dead they will know who to look for first! DO BE CAREFUL SWEETY. I DO MEAN TO SCARE YOU ALITTLE BECAUSE THEM KIND ARE BAD NEWS, AS YOU ALREADY KNOW. WATCH YOUR BACK.
love and hugs and prayers!!!
He said he needed help around here and I needed to get out of the town I was in. By the time I clued in what was happening the trap had almost snapped shut.
Saturday is D-Day. There still isn't a place at the shelter but scared as I am, I am going. I'm in my higher powers hands now.
but yeah... Whoever said life would be cream and sugar is trying to sell you cream and sugar. It can get downright tough at times, but if you stay with those that you know love you for true, with no conditions, you can make it. i have faith in you, you drunk.
