I know just what you mean.

There are many things that let me know I was an alcoholic, but for a long time I did nothing. I knew when:
  1. I drank in the mornings
  2. Later I started really craving alcohol in the mornings, not occasionally indulging in the mornings.
  3. I'd be drinking a couple of drinks at a time. I'd have a beer and a glass of liquor.
  4. I started drinking while driving.
  5. I had to go to the ER once.
  6. I spent the night on the bathroom floor once.
  7. I passed-out sitting up on the floor once.
  8. The list goes on and on.

I think part of me was secretly wishing somebody would tell me I had a problem and needed to change. Eventually, it became obvious that wasn't going to happen and it was too painful to continue on.

Keep up your good work. 2 weeks is super.
