Hi everyone,This is the first time i,ve ever joined a chat group.I am 43 and have been drinking and partying hard since i was 14.I have a beautiful family and feel I have taken it for granted.I need to stop drinking now and somehow turn my life around.I know it's going to be hard so any support would be appreciated.Thanks,Bob.

Kate,Thanks for the reply.I think the hardest part is the self inflicted lonliness and guilt.And though I'm not drinking now I can't stop thinking about it.Why?Bob -

Hi Bob.
Kate is right. All of us when we start here think about booze every second of every minute... I think that is part of the process. But instead of actually drinking it.. read.. read.. read... inform your sober brain and listen to your gut which is helping you to not drink right now.
Lets face it.. your first post indicates your awareness of how you WANT to change.. so now, you have to put the energy and time into finding out HOW you are going to change.. use the effort needed to decide what will work for you.. discuss it.. think and reflect on it and DO it.
As Kate says, its the kindest thing you can do for yourself, even if it is hard at times.
