    • Great post Jamie! Thanks for sharing and giving some tips. It’s a good idea to prep yourself before you reach for the drink and to keep yourself busy… I’m thinking of keeping a log of what I accomplish while I’m not drinking, so if I’m craving a drink I can look at my log and see what I’ve been able to do without drinking. This will hopefully…[Read more]

    • Hi Jamie – today is day 11 for me. I will be truthful and tell you, it is not easy. I have stopped before, for up to 6 months. But it is a very tricky disease, it lured me back, many times. I would always say, I will have “just one”. But one, of course, led to 2, 3 and on and on until I was drinking everyday again. The phrase “one day at a…[Read more]

    • Jamie, I’m new to online forums etc and I’m not too sure how this all works. Day 1 is a great place to start! I’ve had a lot of day 1s. But now I’m on day 82. Take it one day at a time. I’ve really enjoyed the book Living Sober (got it online through AA). It has great tips for the start of the journey!! Good luck!!

      • Hi Jamie
        This is my 1st time on an online forum, so I’m not sure how it works either, but if this group gives me strength to stop drinking then i’m all for it. My drinking like yours was getting out of hand. The more I drunk the more I wanted & got to the stage where the only way out was suicide. But I didn’t have the courage to do that & had…[Read more]
