NotTooSmart, it was really hard for me to admit that I needed help too. I can remember how ashamed I was to admit my alcohol problem out loud, and how scared I was waiting outside for the meeting to actually start.
I was really surprised at the level of support people have given me since I admitted I have a problem. You don't need to shout it from the rooftops obviously, but I suspect the people closest to you in life will have your back if you let them know you're struggling.
You've taken a huge step in a positive direction. It may not be easy from here on out, but it's worthwhile.
