jefleppard Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 best of luck. i'm 2 1/2 years on the wagon. you won't believe how much better you'll feel. alot of people think (myself included) that its the being drunk part that makes life difficult but there's also the "living in a constant state of hangover" part. its funny how we can get used to feeling bad without giving it a second thought. you've made a good decision. you'll never regret it. thumbs up!

Riffster Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Good luck Murph, drinking is fun especially when done socially and in moderation but if it owns you it's gotta go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichCI Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Good for you, Murph! You can do it! Good onya. Sober since 9/26/09 myself. Just because I haven't felt like drinking anything. Best of luck. AXE® I'm getting to that point myself. I suppose I don't drink all that much but sometimes wonder if it's more than I should. What I really need to do is cut out the damned cigarettes; the problem is that I *like* smoking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quit for 2 months with Chantix. I didn't want a cigarette when I started back. I was just bored and tired of pacing around the house until 4:30 am every morning.

jannusguy Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 i just passed the 3 month mark for quitting smoking. used the patch and xanax and the fact that smokes were up to $6 a pack and i was a 2 pack a day smoker. do the math! have moderated my alcohol intake as i wanted to avoid gaining weight. everything (except smokes) in moderation seems to work for me. that and keeping up a fitness regime has me feeling pretty good. murph, identify your motivation and you can do it!

cwness Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Smart choice. I haven't drank for years and it sure is nice to be able to get in the car and go any time you want and the money you'll save. CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milod Posted December 7, 2009 Share Posted December 7, 2009 Well... I could tell dozens of tales. I got scared at 21 'cuz everybody I worked with didn't drink, they guzzled. Ancient Age was the corporate poison. I got another job and left the environment. A current buddy quit after years on the road and barrels of beer. Murph, if you wanna quit, you've got a lotta support here, if nowhere else. Too many of us have seen/done too much. I'm lucky in that for me it was mostly seeing 'stedda doing. But "lucky" is the operative word. m Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
