If you are serious about the program of AA, Stay with Step 1 and don't think too much about the other steps at this juncture.
Are you working the steps with a sponsor?
I nearly killed myself trying to do them on my own.
Step one is simple. If you weren't powerless over alcohol, you wouldn't be on a site called Sober Recovery.
For me, I simple realized the consequences of my drinking, from hangovers to putting alcohol before nearly anything else, etc.
And Step 1 is a two-part step: Manageability. Can you manage your life drunk? I don't care if you are a high-bottom drunk,, low-bottom drunk, high-functioning alcoholic, whether you can make it to work with a hangover, whether you miss work after an all-out party weekend...Can you really manage life with alcohol? Can you imagine life without it?
If the answer is no and no, you're on your way to understanding Step 1.
Step 1 is the only one we have to get perfect.
If you can't stop drinking on will power, then you are powerless over alcohol.
Try this test. Stop drinking for 30 days. At the end of that period, look in the mirror. If you like what you see, just stay stopped.
If what you see in the mirror repulses you, work the 12 steps with a sponsor.
