Hi KV
Welcome to SR.
I was really scared at first too. Admitting I had a problem was the first step and was a huge relief for me. Living without alcohol for the rest of my life freaked me out - so i began my journey day by day.
I have today, i cannot promise anything for tomorrow but I can today. Doing this, and working on my recovery has helped me reach just over 6 months of sobriety.
You have found a great place with a lot of different advice, but always supportive.
