I had to go back and check to see when my "enough is enough" moment was because I was drunk when it happened and it's been a few months. It was a day just like any other, I got up and went outside to smoke a cigarette and contemplate whether or not it was worth living another day like this. Then I went back inside, opened a beer, and started surfing the web like I always did. I had previously searched for treatment centers in the area but never did anything more than bookmark the websites. Then the *moment of clarity*. After several beers I pulled up one of the websites, got the number and called. They made an appointment for me for the following Tuesday and told me not to stop drinking until I came in. I dutifully obeyed their instructions and the morning of the appointment I had 3 beers on the 30 minute drive there. The next day was my day 1.
