    What do we do when we fall? We get up, dust ourselves off and start walking in the right direction again. Perhaps when we fall, it is easy to forget there are people along the way who help us stand and walk with us as we get back on track.

    Today is the 5th anniversary of me deciding to give up alcohol and lead an AF life.

    During the past 5 years my alcohol consumption has been....... 0

    I don`t miss alcohol, the money I haven`t spent on booze has allowed me to do other things, and generally life is good.

    Have I been tempted by booze during the last 6 years ?? - yes, but I fought those negative thoughts and have reprogrammed my brain to avoid the need for booze.

    Will I be AF till my dying days - probably yes.

    Good luck to all of you trying to get there like I have done.
