Welcome to SR, Dina. So very glad that you found us. You will find an abundance of support, understanding and encouragement here.
If you want today to be Day 1, simply say that you are feeling unwell and go to bed. The sooner Day 1 occurs, the better
You could take your internet device with you, shut your door and read around the forum. There is a wealth of information here. Be sure to read the Stickies at the top of the Newcomer's, Daily Newcomer's Support, and Alcoholism forums.
You may want to consider joining an SR Class where you can interact with others who are in the same stage of recovery (beginning).
I'll post a link to the Class of July 2017 and a couple of other thread in a moment.
So glad that you are here, Dina.
