Transition to sobriety- day one
Following a number of increasingly drunken episodes over the past 18 months I have decided that sobriety is my only option to stop it happening again.
I have realised I am unable to control my drinking. Its as though a green light goes on in head that gives me the right to get completely drunk without limits.
After the episodes I feel deeply ashamed,embarrassed and lots of self-hatred. I would really appreciate any words of support for making the transition from drinker to someone sober.
I am also worried as we are coming up to Christmas and any ways to manage and avoid pressures from friends and family are much appreciated.
Thanks
