Welcome woo. I remember when the "I think I may have a problem with alcohol" lightbulb went off in my head. There is a saying "ignonce is bliss" and that was very true with regards to me and alcohol.

For me, the real concern came when I had said "I'm done for good" and then I'd go back to boozing. Then I'd try to control it and that would fail. Ultimately I just got to the point where I accepted that I was an alcoholic and the best I could do was just limit the damage. I found myself not controlling my drinking, but paying more attention to controlling the places I was drunk.

It was a really shatty place to be. I stayed in that place for 3 years.

That all changed December 3, 2010. I finally stopped fighting and trying to "figure it"out" my alcoholism.

I wish you the best of luck!
