I use AA and have had great success with it. I was a hard core drinker for 22 years and wish I had made changes when I was 27. I could have saved myself a lot of broken relationships and bad decisions.
I also hang out here as much as possible. Get your thoughts and feelings out there and let the good people here guide you.
I wish you well on your road to recovery and learning how to live a happy life sober.
Big love.
