Problem is I don't know what life would hold if I don't drink.
Hi dajeff
None of us did - I think that fear, that uncertainty kept a lot of us drinking.
All I can give you is my experience - it wasn't always easy, but it was worth it
I'm near 3 years sober now - I'm not only close to the man I always wanted to be, but altho I'm not rich or successful, I'm happy and content with my life - the fact I don't drink is almost an afterthought.
If you're anywhere as beaten down and enslaved by booze as I was, a life free of all that is something to look forward to
Just take the same way any of us did - a day at a time.
You'll find a lot of support here too - welcome to SR!
