glad youre here, bowski.
one thing that caught my attention:
"I want to stop being an alcoholic "
welp, once yer a pickle ya cant go back to being a cucumber
but it is possible to be a sober alcoholic in recovery.
tips suggestions? look into recovery programs
look at the link soberwolf posted.
getting sober isn't easy. very simple concept-don't drink. but not easy.
and usually involves action and change.
staying sober is easy.
