I told my sister. I wish my hubby had been the first but the opportunity came up and I got brave and grabbed it.
She complained about her drinking and I told her I'm an alcoholic. She admitted she was too. It was an amazing, wonderful conversation (I told her about this site and she said she'd check it out) and she told me she was proud of me. And she, too, encouraged me to tell my husband.
And I will very soon.
But, hey, I got my feet wet! And the water is fine!
