New to this, a little nervous?
I am 26 years old. To make a long story short, i didn't start drinking until i went to college(Northeastern, Boston, MA). My father died when i was 19 years old, and i dropped out of school. Since then i have probably drank at least 5 days a week up until my current age. I don't think im an alcoholic, because i dont wake up shaking ever from not drinking, but I do know i have a drinking problem. For example yesterday i went out and had 6 shots and about 6 beers over a 2 hour period and literally felt nothing. I posted on facebook, how i am done drinking and got absolutely no support from my "friends" only sarcastic comments. That is why im signing up for this website because i am internet friendly, and i feel like complete strangers can be more supportive than my friends. I have an employee party coming up tomorrow night and with new years right around the corner i really hope i can start my recovery off on the right foot. Currently im not even a day sober but im really going to try this time, no matter how hard it is.Wish me luck!
