Hi Brad and welcome to the pursuit of sobriety. You seem to have a few very good things going for you, your honesty about your drinking and you have acceptance that you need to stop it. A major hurtle for many is denial and that can take one to the grave in short order.
I needed to accept the fact that if I don’t have the first drink I won’t have to get sober AGAIN, there were too many agains for me and this addiction never gets better if we drink.
BE WELL
