I have to confess, I'm a huge alcoholic and always have been, I've been sober in increments of 5 years and one other time for ten years. I recently reflected on how much I have been/was consuming. I'm completely through this time. I just can't do it anymore. I'll be honest - after this last time, I'm lucky to even be here right now.
I love you guys and promise to each of you, this is the new beginning to my life and I'm completely done with drinking.
Thanks for the ear. If anyone else is struggling. Please feel free to chime in if you wish.

Got any good ideas for a workout for someone who is Type 2 diabetic? Normal workouts I have found play with the balance in my system....sometimes I will over do it. [Reply]

Thanks for the support.
Good job Simply Red. Keep it up.
Remember dont get complacent. Always remember why you are quitting in the first place because it is easy to forget and wind up right where you started. [Reply]
This is good news SR. Alcoholism is a nasty beast. I have had many friends succumb to the powers of the drink.
I have a friend who was sober for the longest time, he called me drunk on Saturday and broke my heart. I actually didn't even know what to say so I told him I loved him but didn't want to talk with him when he wasn't sober. Felt bad about it throughout the weekend. [Reply]
What is awesome about the type of guy you are, is once you get through this initial struggle you will be able to help out so many others with the same issue. [Reply]
Still not a drop since August - just reporting in. This will be my last check in - as I don't want to whore for attention. But yeah... Feel free to let this drop down the thread index... It gets boring being sober all the time - but it's nice to be back in control.

Carry on my friends.
Don't worry about attention whoring. If you need to bump this thread as a reminder to yourself, do it.
Congratulations my friend. I couldn't be happier for you. Deepest sincerity. [Reply]
