newbie alcoholic and drug user

Hi people.
I've joined this forum to hopefully give me the courage to Finally seek some real Help(and stick with it this time). I'm 34 and been battling with Alcoholism and drug abuse since I was 16.Over the years i've been to a few AA meetings, even been in rehab a few times but never taken it really seriously.
Recently my partner left me, taking my daughter with her after finally having enough. The last time i went on a binge which lasted 4days was a couple of days ago. Every one who loves and cares for me are now really worried because they know things will probably get worse now i'm living alone.

I'm willing to give recovery a try but am really worried that i only feel like this cause i'm on a come down. I fear that in a couple of days when i feel better the cycle will begin again....as it always does.

I feel so lost at the moment and so alone. And yet the fear of change is so overwhelming. I'm scarred i have to hit rock bottom before i will actually change.
