Brookie,
Glad to here you have decided to start day one. I am an alcoholic on day 4 and each day gets easier. My only word of advice is take it one hour at a time and get that booze out of the house as soon as possible.
My first day one started with Vodka in the house and I just was not strong enough. Started again the next day with an empty house. Also, post here as often as you need as you get through this first day. I posted every hour just to mark the passing of one hour closer to a clean day.
Know my thoughts and prayers will be with you,
Triegger
