I didint write anything here for several months. Today is a special day for me. Im one year withouth alcohol. Working in a bar i wasnt easy, but been busy with my job, my baby (he is 2 years old)he was one year when i found this web page. I feel stronger than before, but this is something i have to face everyday, im learning to live with it, im an alcoholic, i will always be an alcoholic, there is no miracles to save me from this. I accept that i wont drink any alcohol, just for today.
Thanks to everybody who post here, i see people here that is continuing trying to stay sober like im doing.
Today i read some post and i remember lots of feeling, when i was afraid, lots of tears, shame, desapointments, many things to regret.
I dont want to back, i asould remember all of that, it hepls me for not to drink.
Thanks to 43things that allows me to know , in some way, people like me.
Thanks everybody, for make me feel that im no alone here.
Take care, kisses.

Im posting today,I dont know if some of you remember me (Im a single mother who works as a manager in a bar),Sorry for no to say even hello last months but ive been very busy, between my job in the bar and my 2 years old baby i havent had time for anything.
Well…some months ago i started to go to aa meetings again and i also found this page. 9 months exactly since i stopped drinking. I only wanted to write something to share that im so happy…im sober!. Its very hard not to drink when something bad happens, sometimes im very stressed and i want to drink something.
I know, i really know what alcohol means for me(All that i dont want in my life!). I wont go in that way again. Its hard to face life without alcohol but…alcohol becomes life worse!
Its just for today. One day at a time.
Thanks everybody who posts here, you help me a lot to fight agaist my alcoholism. Thanks aa, thanks god.
Today i realize that i havent drunk anything for 3 months. To stop drinking i remember every day and every moment that alcohol means many awful things that i dont want in my life. Im still working in a bar as a manager and when somebody say cheers i just drink water, sodas, juices or energy drinks. I never stpped drinking for 3 mothns before, i feel that this is a normal day, but i cant forget that im an alcoholic, if i dont forget that i will be ok.
Take care. kiss.
