It was at this time that I was outed so to speak and everyone close to me knew I had a drinking problem and that I was indeed an alcoholic. At first they tried to ply liquor from my hands and then finally I went to a DR. admitted what I was doing and quit.
Well of course I held strong for a good three months but then I did that route we all do. We start with non alcoholic beer, end up convincing ourselves we can drink one or two and then the viscous cycle started all over again. I went through this start and stop get drunk and be sick , get sober and be six for 6 months. In the midst of this I lost my job while on FMLA but I did get my unemployment.
