New guy here!

Hey everyone! I recently came across this site and it has been such a blessing! I scroll through the threads and can relate with so many people. Im 32 and I will be the first to
admit that it is tough accepting im an alcoholic at such a "young" age. I have tried to quit drinking more than once and failed more than once. It is that crazy non sensical thinking that maybe just maybe i will actually be able to moderate myself. I will just drink once a week on a friday or a saturday. No big deal. That all works fine for awhile and than it goes from once a week to all weekend and than before i know it im on another bender. i know i will never be able to moderate alcohol and i just have to accept that. I currently have 77 days sober. Summers are tough for me bc of bbqs, lake trips, swimming pools, etc. Im just taking it one day at a time. I know in order to truly LIVE i must remain sober. I love life sober. I go to the gym almost every day and that definitely helps keep me on track!
