• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

If you want to quit drinking and always fail on your own...

Alcoholics Anonymous can help you succeed in this area. Part of us staying sober involves helping other people who have a desire to stop drinking. We don't want anything you have other than your company if you are willing to share it.

I don't have to drink today. My family is happy to see me. My job is going well. I don't wake up feeling sick with regret anymore like I used to. If that sounds better than what you currently have then it might be worth a try for you.

Yours in service,

Gabe

Thanks Gabe. I have been in AA for over 20 years, and currently have 16+ months of sobriety. The only requirement for membership in AA is the desire to stop drinking. There are no dues or fees.

Go to www.aa.org for more information.
