Costa, thanks for posting this. I too am a binge drinker, but with much more frequency. Maybe 5 days a week and a couple of nights off if I'm lucky.
On day 4 here. The absolutely powerful thing to me about this thing I have called alcoholism is the cunning and progressive way it works. I have one beer, it's going to be 15....or, whatever is left in the house. Something else takes over and my rationale self is no longer in control. It is scary. And, for me at least, if I continue to drink, I will die. Maybe not immediately physically, but emotionally I can feel my soul and spirit being eroded by it.
I am truly powerless.
Welcome to this board. I have many false starts and slips. But, I have to do it this time. We can do this.
Good luck to you. You can do this!!!
