You know when I went to AA there was people there who had waaaaay worst problems than me lost everything, it made me question am I actually an alcoholic

Blueberry, I know this was an earlier post in your thread and since you have realized you need to stop drinking.

The reason I point it out is, (noting I am very early in my own sobriety) is this will be something that could come up again for you. It does for me, and I have read it time again from newcomers and those with longer sober time a like.

Comparing our problems (or lack thereof) as not so bad to others' problems can be a slippery slope, leading back to -" maybe I'll have just one, I really wasn't that bad, was I?"

It's a process, and sounds like you are doing great!
