I have not been to AA, and I am not sure I will go. Will that give me less of a chance at recovery?
Hard to say, every one is different, for this old man it was AA or no way, I spent years trying to stay stopped until finally there was no choice in the matter I had to drink every day just to function and either got nothing out of it or was passed out.

Feeling a bit better, but it is almost as if I have forgotten how to be me without alcohol.
Oh trust me, that was my biggest fear of sobriety, what was I going to do if I was not drinking? AA helped me a lot in that area, rooms full of recovering alcoholics living life on lifes terms sober!

Everything I did while I was drinking I do better sober today and I remember what I did the next day!!! I have also found that all of those things I used to want to do while I was drinking but never did I can do today sober. I was to busy drinking to worry about trying to live life. Why live life when I can get drunk!!!!
