I have been dropping by now and again to read the posts and look for encouragement. I have tried so many times to stop drinking but always convice myself I can moderate. Last night I drank one and a half bottles of wine and threw up in my house mate's bathroom. I am embarassed by the mess he must have found when he got home and the collection of empties in the recycling bin again.

I am starting again today. The first day or so is usually easy but then the embarassment fades and I start thinking I can control and moderate.

Hi edison38,

We have all embarrassed ourselves when drinking too much. It's the nature of the beast. Put it behind you and face forward. Being on here and stating your situation shows a true desire to quit. You can do this. Welcome.

I get that thought too, after months of not drinking I decided I was " cured" well I tried to moderate, and messed my life up worse than before, The only way for me is to never drink, get some water and electrolytes, and clean up the mess, Good luck. Roxygrl
