Welcome to the rest of my life....

Hey everyone.

Today is my Day one. Ive been building up to this for a long time and with much advice, love and support (mainly here in chat) I begin outpatient detox tommorrow. Which means I have to get through today - so I can turn up there tommorrow morning with a zero breathalyser reading in order to get my meds.

Im terrified. I meant to go on a bender last night as a "farewell" gesture - but lol forgot to stock up and I am a high functioning alcoholic who will not drive to get more, so didn't quite make the bender. Oh well - thats gotta be a good thing, I may pay more attention in church this morning without a hangover. Its been a long time since I have lived without alcohol in my life....

Anybody that can offer support or wisdom or prayers, please do. Otherwise wake up at around 2.30am - that would be around 9pm for me in my timezone and Im likely to be in chat freaking out and hollaring for someone to come rescue me. Ha ha.

K - thanks for reading my ramble. Feel free to me.
