thanks for all the comments so far...to "flutter", i dont solely identify being an alcoholic with shaking or whatever else. I got a dui, and i constantly go into work with hangovers so i know its a problem. I know its not normal to drink 4-6 days a week(maybe more in the summer time) and although i enjoy drinking their are aspects of it i flat out hate, but have learned to deal with, i.e. having no money, waking up hungover, even becoming a "good drunk driver". I dont know how long my sobriety will last but this is the first time I have really been committed to it, and i feel like once my friends see that im serious about not drinking, they will support me. I have just said it to many times for them to take me serious.
