Your story isn't much different than any of ours. I think that you're very fortunate to have realized the problem at such an early age. I wish I had. Early sobriety is a b***h. If you've made it 5 days, at least you've safely detoxed. Now you need to get involved with a recovery program and the best one I've found is AA. I know it saved my life. Look up AA in the phone book. The number is manned 24/7. They'll be able to direct you to the nearest meeting. You'll find a lot of support and help there from folks who've been through what you're going through now. Best of luck and please keep us posted on how it's going.
