I think I'm an alcoholic because I drink a pint of rum straight with diet coke on the side 4-5 times a week, feel like crap next day, dont sleep well when I drink, will sleep until rum wears off then I'm like an insomniac! I generally drink out of boredom, or if I'm upset, or if I'm happy or celebrating something, dont really need a reason I guess. I just had major surgery, gall bladder removal and complete hysterectomy, and I didnt wait but a week to start drinking again, cant be good! :(
 
No, it really cannot be. Good news is that you realize that you have a problem. This is a huge step in the right direction... the question is whether or not you are fully willing to do something about it? ;)
 
I agree with darksun. If you have some questions, just post away. I am sure there are a few alcoholics that will jump in and try to help. Me included. Nice to meet you by the way!! If you like, search my user name and read a bit about my story. Bye for now Kay.............

Thanks for the support, didnt get outta bed til 3pm, not because I drank last night, because I recovering from 2 surgerys! Did too much yesterday and hurt last night, thought I needed to rest. I did want to and I want to now but that means I would have to drive to liquor store, dont feel like driving. I always feel energized and refreshed when I'm not hungover but its not enough to keep me from doing it again. My daughter has found me on the front porch passed out and couldnt get me up, I wake up with bruises and sore places and have know idea what from. Husband and I are seperated but still are together every chance we get, didnt split cause of the drinking, other reasons, but drinking is a big part of our lives. If I go back home to him I know I would probably drink more often, he stresses me and thats another trigger, or excuse!
 
Hi KayKay Linda here checkin on you to see how you are? I have been there done that. I called netcare one night out of desperation and they sent the police to check on me. I was sitting in the kitchen floor in my nightie trashed~sad~depressed. My daughter was here at the time and I will never know what I did to her only imagine. Please know I am here for you if you need to talk.

Linda
You are in my thoughts and prayers
 
I have went 3 days with no rum, felt bad this morning though because i sat up til 3am, since i had slept all day the day before! Got plenty of sleep now, I know since I will feel ok later I will most likely go to the liq store. I will try not to, but not working because of this surgery recovery is killing me! Thank god I go back to work monday!
