I didn't come to terms with it, the dts kinda made me wake up and go wtf. Thing is I was trying to not drink and kept getting sick. I woke up one morning after drinking the night before and realized that when I drank I didn't feel sick anymore, I made it about 36 hours the last time without drinking. I woke up and said s***, I'm an alcoholic. By the way I was a bartender, that's how I made my living. For me I lived in denial for years and I pride myself on brutal honesty. I remember looking up alcohol withdrawl the year before. My symptoms matched, I just ignored it.
Anyway that's my story and I'm sticking to it. The thought of quitting forever scared me to death . I can quit for 24 hrs so that's what I do every day. 80 times now.
Stick with it. I didn't think is make a day, turns out I did.
