Transfer addiction resources please
Kim,
I appreciate your saying that so much. I really do. I am blown away by the support and love I've received since I posted about my alcohol problem and the support has really held me up this week as I have detoxed and started to learn how to live without getting drunk every night.
Thank your for your support.

Becky,
You are one strong woman. Hang tough, chickie. You are doing the best thing right now, going to meeting to maintain your sobriety, and not keeping any of this a "secret" to be ashamed of.
HUGS!!!!

Jamie,
I certainly knew of the phrenomenon, thanks to these forums but I NEVER thought for a second that it would happen to me.
My progression was FAST. If I hadn't stopped it when I did I don't know what would have happened. I am so grateful that I wa**** in the head by my bf and got myself to a meeting.
I am going to be fine and I will probably make an effort in the future to make sure that people know of this possibility and what resources are available to them.
I guess I'll consider this my autum of insanity at some point in the future.

Thanks Jackie. I am getting "in" to AA. I called two people tonight and I am going to a potluck lunch tomorrow. I am so grateful for AA, for my wonderful bf *****fused to enable me to continue to drink, to my friends here on OH who have been SO incredibly supportive and to my ex BF who has helped me tremendously.
I am truly blessed.

I am truly blessed.

I'm really glad you have found support and also that you are talking about it openly here. this is SO easy for us to fall into; people need to be warned!
once upon a time I had a group to talk about Binge Eating Disorder, and later one about Clean Eating.
PM me if you are interested in either of these.
size 8, life is great
Becky,
I responded to you on the transfer addictions page. I'm glad you are facing this instead of hiding. Alcoholism is a progressive disease that only gets worse...NEVER better. I never, ever drank before my DS and struggled for 2 years to get sober. It is so much harder to get sober than to stay sober. Anyone else who is struggling with this...join us on the transfer addictions board.
Bless you!
