I want to stop drinking & don't know where to start!
My DM is in AA (6.5yrs Sober) I never after 25 years thought I would see the day. So I am MORE than aware of the dangers, misery, pain & suffering of alcohol.
I don't think I am an alcoholic, but I drink too much. I can't just have one glass. I can't just have one with dinner. It has to be full blown obliteration. It's making me miserable that I do that. The guilt the next day lasts for weeks sometimes.
I can't speak to my DM as she is very bias towards AA (that's fine as she would be dead) but I don't think AA is the route for me.
I just want to not drink. Why can't I just stop it!!!!!!!!
Today it's got to me really bad, I've not drunk over Xmas so it's not like I crave it. I think I'm bored!?! But I KNOW there is more to life than this misery that alcohol brings to me.
I'm stupid, guilty & feel horrible about it all
