I'm clueless on how to even stop drinking for a month as pathetic as that sounds.
That is not pathetic at all, I was at the point in the end where I could not stay sober a single day and had no clue how to stay sober!
After I got out of detox it was suggested that I go see people who KNEW how to stay sober long term, the people in AA! I thought these folks were a bunch of losers, until I started to go to meetings, these people were laughing, smiling, had a twinkle in thier eyes, were sober and most important of all THEY WERE LIVING LIFE SOBER!!!!!!
Go to AA meetings for a month, what do you have to lose? A few drunks and embarassing mopments leading to a lot of mental anguish?
What do you have to gain?
Life itself, friends not drinking buddies, people who would love nothing more then for you to join them in real activities that do not require drinking at all!
