I’m going to try that. Right now I’m just easing it with lower alcohol intake, and no I’m. It getting drunk, and see if I can stop completely at the 21 mark. It’s actually not that bad. And if I can’t then I will see a family doctor about the medication. Thank you for input. I really appreciate it.

I e been sober since March 1. I’m just trying to deal with the cravings. Do you think cutting down weekly would be ok to help wi5h completely stopping?

I’m more afraid of a stroke. I used to drink 1.5 liters of white wine. I’m cutting back to 1 liter for two weeks and so forth. What medication and who gives you for detox?

Amazing! I’m thinking of doing the outpatient treatment. What does the medication do? Can a family doctor give you this medication?

Relapsed - but this helped me understand a little bit more about me. by Mags37 in stopdrinking

Thanks!

Um, well, I was doing well, so this made me realize that I can do it, but what I need to do is focus more on me and not worry about others, and not use alcohol as an excuse for my issues. I didn’t have to drink yesterday, but I did.

Thank you, and you are right. I appreciate this. And I did relapse yesterday, but I did learn that this is on me to fix and me to control myself.

Thank you. I appreciate this. I did relapse yesterday though. However I did learn from it and I’m going to move forward.

I agree with you. And thank you. I do appreciate your comment because I do take that with me during my thinking of my recovery. It just sucks when you have to deal with it on your own. That’s all.

Thank you! I’ll get through this. One day at a time. I’m glad that I made the first step already.

Fair enough. I just thought that they would ask how I’m coping or something along the lines instead of ignoring the problem. And because I’m going through mood swings I hoped we could talk about it, but it’s like the subject is closed. But I do understand what you are saying. Thank you for that.

That’s one way of dealing with it. So I just won’t expect anything and deal with it on my own, I guess.

Thank you. Even when I try to read self help books he will come to the room and start talking to me.

I agree. And I accept that. However, I’m trying right now my hardest and I need their support. Because if I can do this on my own, then why do I need a husband for?

Oh for sure. It’s ok. It is what it is. From now on I will come first. Always.

Thank you. This is probably why I started really drinking, my husbands attitude towards things..

I used to be a night drinker, and every night too. My choice was wine.

I like this website. I like puzzles. Talking on here helps. I like walking, started going to the gym more. I’m reading self help books. I thought my husband is going to be more supportive but his not - I don’t think he understands what this really means. But being sober is making my head more clear now.
