I WAS also a 1 - 2 bottle of wine a night drinker. I can so relate to your post. Relationship trouble..escalated drinking..major consequences...drinking alone. I am on day 6 and have now committed to myself that I will be going to a 12:00 AA meeting on Friday. I thought about it last weekend, but was absolutely petrified at the thought. For some reason I am now feeling "ready" to go. We shall see... I am not a big religious or God person either Eleanor.. hopefully that aspect will not be a big factor. I also don't know what to do with myself it seems, drinking took up so much of my fime before. I feel like I don't even know who I am anymore. I have spent ALOT of time the last 6 days on these boards. I am sure I will wean off a bit once I get more used to this sober thing, but for now it's working for me. So many GOOD people with similar stories. Really gives me hope. Glad you are with us.
