I have been seeing a professional for several months. This person had work at a rehab clinic and is now in private practice. I was sure that weekly appointments would help me solve my drinking problems and I resisted going to AA meetings. I managed to drink less, but still drink.

Then on Sunday, after drinking non stop for two days, I realized I was kidding myself and that I was unable to "control" the drinking. Why do I drink? Oblivion, energy (I can go non-stop for several hours). Anyway, Sunday night I started reading the Big Book online and Monday morning I found this site.

I fully admit that I am powerless over alcohol and that my life has become unmanageable. For the past 3 years I have pretended to be this person that was on top of everything - damn near perfect. In the mean time my spirit was dying.

I'm glad I found SR. I'm glad I'm not alone.
