alcoholism runs in my family. had a great-grandfather die of cirrhosis of the liver at 32 years old. my dad is still an alcoholic, albeit functional. I very VERY rarely drink, and then, never to excess. my sister has a pretty bad alchol problem.

good thoughts and positive mojo headed your way, sr.

Mr. Simply Red is a big boy. He needs to do 90 in 90 and he needs to know that up front, Mr. bogey.

It's always a shame society yucks it up about being wasted then you got the way the few who know the truth. Ruins everyones lives, one screw up can cost you you or someone elses lives, but everyone exept the people who are honest ha ha ha it up "i was so wasted" The fact you post it on a BB and you know you relapsed and have a problem is good atleast. Most people just drive themselves in the ground (ususally 6 feet) you always get the random advice from people who aren't "there" never been entrenched in that shit. Gotta listen to workers in the programs

If you insist, i'll do it. I'll do it.

My thoughts are with you SR. You are young enough and smart enough to beat this and I trust you will because you did it before.

I have faith in u SR... I know u can win this battle!

1 or 2 a day for the first 90 days. Just like sex.

Please report back after you go. That's important. Also, remember that there are all kinds of meetings. By that I mean that different meeting locations and/or meeting times attract different types of people.

You may or may not truly like your first meeting ... if not, it will be because of the people. If that turns out to be the case, we need to find a different day/time for your second one.

Eventually, you'll find a meeting that you like. In fact, you'll find yourself looking forward to going. A lot.

there is a part of you Demon that still wants to quit, i know there is. Never force you to, obviously, I can't. But, let me know if you want to join me. Are you doing okay with it? (if i may ask)

On an easy and practical level, there is an "ignore thread" feature here that would allow you to get rid of drinking threads from your sight, SR.

If you are serious, check yourself in someplace. If you aren't serious, then I guess keep trying what hasn't worked. Only you will determine what will happen in the future or if you will have one.

It's not on me, Mr. Simply Red. It's all on you. If I were there, I'd drive you to them, but I can't. What I can do is give you the very best advice you'll get anywhere from anyone and that's what I'm doing.

If you're sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, you'll go. If not ... ???

Honestly, that's pretty much what it boils down to. You have the disease. That's a fact. It's nothing to be ashamed of ... hell, there are some very cool people with that disease. Very cool people. But it does mean that, eventually, you'll wind up with only a limited number of choices in your life and they're all bad. Meetings can prevent that from happening.

My nightly bloodlust is spilling over in to my days.

Everyone has problems. Some more serious than others and some just haven't come to terms that they have a problem.

Good luck!

Listen to Mr Fax he speaks the truth.
