11 hours is a good start. It would probably be a good idea to talk to your doctor, or if you don't have one, at least a doctor. Talking to a doc is like talking to a priest, they can't share what they discuss with you unless you give them permission. (Of course I'm not religious, but I think that's how the priest thing works!!) Be honest with him, it is highly unlikely that you are the first person with a drinking problem he has talked to. He or she (gotta be PC!!) will not judge you, but can be a helpful resource in quitting.
I've always found it a bit ironic that detoxing from herion won't kill you, you may wish you were dead (from what I understand it's pretty bad) but detoxing from alcohol, a "legal" drug, can. It depends on how much you are drinking, how often, etc., and I can't begin, and wouldn't even want to, give you advice about that. When you are dealing with you life it's best to involve a trained professional. I know it's hard to "fess up" to someone in person but it really is a good idea.
As far as secular help goes...you might want to look into SMART recovery. Here is a link to their site:
http://www.smartrecovery.org/ They have online meetings as well as face to face meetings. You can find out more about their program at their website. I've found it to be very helpful. If you are interested in F2F meetings, here are some in your area

Lifering is another secular organization that has online meetings as well as F2F. Here is their website
http://www.unhooked.com/index.htm They have a very active chat room that you can usually find someone in almost any time of day. They also hold online meetings there as well. They have a F2F meeting in Salem, which doesn't look too far away. Here's the link for their meeting list.

There is also a sticky at the top of the forum here that lists a number of other secular programs. Hope this helps, and hope to see you around more. Take care.
