I need help to quit drinking. I feel like it should just be simple, just don't drink. No one is making me do it. What I'm doing isn't working and I need to re-evaluate my game plan. So, I've called a recovery place I've looked into and I think will be a good fit. I know I'm an alcoholic and I'm struggling. I'm not working hard enough and I'm not choosing sobriety and recovery, even though I say I want it, and I do.
The recovery house is checking my insurance and then will call me back and we will talk next steps then. I've been drinking the past few days
so I am also looking into a medically supervised detox along with professional help and in person support. I'm looking at starting tomorrow or Saturday. I'm at work and trying to hold myself together but I'm quietly crying as I type this, I hope no one stops by my desk. I'm the only one working right now so I hope I qualify for STD if I need to be out of work for more than a week.
