Re: Going off alcohol

Great achievement @utopia ! Well done.  I am still cutting it down.  Less or none on work nights and a few otherwise.  I'm not doing heavy drinking anywhere near as much as I used to. I have had a single vodka tonight but don't feel like anything else.  So progress I guess. 

Re: Going off alcohol

it is progress @Former-Member , keep it up my friend 

 

Re: Going off alcohol

@Former-Member  That is definately progress my friend. Cutting down is exactly how i did it.

Well done my friend.

Re: Going off alcohol

Thanks @utopia . It's not where I wanted to be,  off alcohol but it is progress as you say. Thanks for the support 

Re: Going off alcohol

@Shaz51 . I understand that feeling of trying to numb out pain.

Unfortunately i found that i needed to drink more and more, and eventually it stopped working. So i was forced to recognise why i wanted to numb and what i was hiding from.

Quitting or reducing alcohol isn't easy my friend. It takes a lot of effort and commitment. It is hard facing your wounds. But it can be done. Slowly.

Congratulate yourself, even if you've reduced your drinking by 1 glass. That is an achievement.

Wishing you well.

Re: Going off alcohol
