Welcome Rama. The first few days are hard, especially since you've just admitted to yourself and others you have a problem. I'd suggest looking into an outpatient program for substance abuse. I am a full time worker as well, but this took precedence over work because drinking is a cycle. Your life will NEVER get better if the drink stays in it. It is truly a vicious cycle. I'd also recommend reading "Drinking: A Love Story" - it really helped me relate and was a good story...about a high functioning alcohoic and her journey to sobriety.
