Sweets it is scary thinking about life without alcohol...scarier yet is the thought of living the life of an active alcoholic. I wish I would have quit when I was 29...I was about 5 years into my addiction by then...I ignored all the signs and pressed forward...losing my 30's to all the misery that alcohol brings. Thankfully I am happy to say that my 40's will not be marred by my lack of commitment to do what I know is the right thing. You can do this if you want to...again you have to really want to.
