Hi, Helloworld.

No one else thought I had a problem, either, not even my ex-wife. I had them all fooled. But we can't fool ourselves. Or, I should say, if we're lucky we stop fooling ourselves. Far too many alcoholics deny themselves deeper and deeper into the abyss. So you should be grateful for that self-awareness. Ignorance, in this situation, is definitely not bliss.

It seems really dark and lonely right now, I know. It usually does when we reach the point where we decide we've had enough. But believe me, as scary and depressing as it might seem, you will look back one day and be so grateful you took this step. In fact, you'll celebrate this as one of the best things that ever happened.

Trust in yourself—you can do this, and you'll be super glad you did!

Welcome to SR!
