Day 1 and I'm feeling wounded
Alcoholism runs in my family. My mother, grandparents on both sides and several uncles on both sides have all been alcoholics. I've always been very leary and suspicious of developing a problem myself. I was surprised to find myself swept up in it.
When I registered on this site I started crying. I realized I've been stuffing a lot of my feelings down by using alcohol. I wonder what causes it. I don't believe it's a disease. If others do I don't object to it or try to force my view. I'm just letting people know where I stand.
I feel very tired and sad. I'm disappointed in myself. I'm lonely so I'm hoping that by coming here I will get the support I so desperately need. Thank you.
