I am 58 years old and have been sober from alcohol at various times in my life through the help of AA. I live and work in Germany now and have had lots of trouble putting together continuous sobriety. I stay sober a few months, weeks or days and then relapse again. Sometimes it takes days or weeks to get back on track. I want to stay sober for my husband and daughter but also for myself. I feel so much better when I don't drink! I attend AA meetings in English twice a week, but I'm not honest with my sponsor who is very BOSSY. I also work in a pro-drinking environment, but some coworker know of my struggle with alcohol and would be very supportive if i let them. So why don't I just STOP?? This site is great and I'm hoping becoming more involved will help.
With best wishes for us all,
Gingerlee
