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.

Good morn-
I'm feeling sad and frustrated this morning. Even though I over came the fear of changing out my Baby girl's G-tube. I was feeling so much anxiety over replacing it but once it was done I felt accomplished. But then the feeling of frustration and sadness took over. I had to take the little one to day care this morn and she wouldn't take her bottle and I was running late. I expect so much from myself. But I said to myself a lest your sober and not hung over and give yourself a break. It's been 6 days since I've drank and I feel good about that. But I'm still obsessed with the drinking. Thinking will I drink again. That one day I'll be able to drink normal. I tell myself such lies. I'll never drink normal 'cause I never have and I'm not built that way. I know I like the feeling of sobriety but cant move away from stinking thinking.
It helps to spill out my feelings to the site. It helps me gain perspective. Any feed back would be appreciated. I just want to be well and to know its okay to live sober and that its what is best for me. I really want to be the best Mom I can be and being sober is the best way to achieve that goal. I love my baby girl so much and I dont want to let her down. Its been a hard adjustment to her disability and Im still adjusting. Drinking to cover up the pain and disappointment is stupid and useless. Oh how I wish things could be different but I also know our situation could be a whole lot worse. Okay Ill stop there. I hope all my friends have a good day .
Thanks for listening,

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...
It's normal that you are thinking about driking. I did too, in the beginning, and I still do sometimes. But hey - I"m an alcoholic, what am I gonna think about... ?? Alcohol was my number one love, and when I put it down, I had to mourn it.. It's ok if you're thinking about driking... It's your disease doing push ups in your head. Just don't give in. Your thoughts don't have to become actions. They are JUST thoughts. Also, don't think about not drinking for the rest of your life. Just focus on not drinking TODAY. One day at a time. One hour at a time if you have to. You dont have to drink no matter what!!! You are a wonderful person and a wonderful mother and you are giving yourself and your little girl a chance for a better life. Just don't drink today and everything else will fall into place. And be proud of yourself... 6 days is awesome!!! Hugs and kisess!!!!
Then he asked me what I call normal, so I told him, he then said shall we try abstinance and I agreed.
We can't drink normal, thats the problem, please don't find out the hard way like me, I relapsed a couple of years back, and only then could I 100% say that I do not know what normal is.
Anyway, since I have finally got sober, I wonder what all the fuss is about, do we really want to pour drugs down ourselves however small.
Keep going get it out the system, your thoughts will change, mine have gone from wanting a drink to thinking that drinking is mad, so it will change believe me.
My sins love me sober, our life is so much sweeter, OK they take the Piss a bit now, knowing I won't shout that much, but I can live with that
You are truly doing something great
My thoughts are with you
