    How to Stop Drink

    Hello Dilip and :welcome:

    This is a good place to be. You'll get loads of support from people all over the world who are in the same boat, rowing against the ugly tide of booze. Most of us started by reading RJ's book and then deciding which path to take.

    I look forward to 'seeing you around'

      How to Stop Drink

      Hi Dilip, and welcome.

      Tawny is right, a great place to start is RJ's book and then getting a handle on the program and working out how you want it to work for you. You will get support and advice from the members anytime you ask for it (and even when you dont!).

      You do need to control your drinking if it's affecting your life and family.

      We have all been in similar places at one time or another, so don't be afraid to reach out.
      It always seems impossible until it's done....

            Go right to the top of this page and there's a tab which says "Health Store". You can download it for free from there.

                How to Stop Drink

                Hello again Dilip,

                Good job on not drinking in the afternoon or after work. What is your ultimate plan? Do you wish to completely stop drinking or to cut right down? Did you download and read the book? There is so much very good information in there.

                    Hello again Dilip

                    Just a thought - you may consider starting a new thread in the "Just Starting Out" section of this forum to introduce yourself. That is a very active part of MWO where many new people ask questions and receive a lot of answers. You would get a lot of replies and help almost immediately from a great bunch of people.

                    This part 'Long Term Abstainers' is generally fairly quiet with not very much activity. As I said - it's just a thought - you're very welcome here.

                      How to Stop Drink

                      Hi Dilip,

                      I've been in shoes that are similar to the ones you're in now. While I'm not sure there is going to be an answer that fits everyone the same way, I can tell you some of what worked for me.

                      I needed to understand for myself that the alcohol problem was a symptom of another problem. That you mention you're depressed may indicate you are the same way. This said, it takes a great deal of courage to quit drinking and that IS the first and very important step. I too decided I needed to quit entirely.

                      A few encouraging things for you is that you can do it, as many of the people here have. And you can begin to experience a lifting of that monkey off your back. Don't be afraid to use your support systems also. Friends, counseling, this forum, etc. I've used them all.

                      Best of luck and welcome to the forums. Stick around, keep reading, and when you're feeling down come back and read and post your thoughts.
