[QUOTE="cal7.62x39, post: 3711265, member: 6824"] Congratulations on your steps to cut alcohol, I'm happy for you. I can't say I had a problem with drinking in the past, but I could drink a case in a day then not drink for weeks. A couple of years ago after the failure of a business andpersonal issues put my family and marriage on the ropes. my family walked into a church that a class mate of my oldest daughter kept inviting her too(the kids dad was the preacher). I had never considered myself a religious man and went because I figured that if I can't control what influenced my children I could control who influenced my children. I didn't realize it at the time, but slowly by being around those living for God and a clean life I started getting my stuff together. Not realizing it I quit drinking (a year and a half since my last drink), I quit vaping, my language has cleaned up alot, and I'm not nearly as angry about anything and everything anymore. I'm far from perfect, but a completely different man than I use to be just 2 years ago. My wife and I are happy my kids are happy and well behaved. We have friends of true substance now that we can truly rely on if we need to, and they us. Church saved my family, marriage, and life without me even realizing. If your not part of a congregation I would urge you to possibly seek one out, if you are I would talk with your pastor about what he can do to help you with your journey. [/QUOTE]
