Hey all,
I am sitting here, feeling down about my drinking habits. I never considered myself an alcoholic. I just thought I was a life of the party. I don't feel like I've ever really had a physical addiction to alcohol, however, my issue always comes down to self control. Lately, almost every time I drink it ends in a blackout. I finally hit my rock bottom last night after "waking up" (coming back from the blackout) in a hospital bed and was told I was found passed out outside of the bar I was at. I have multiple tickets (disorderly) and a huge hospital bill coming so my anxiety is worse than usual after a heavy night of drinking. I realized that looking back on my drinking habits that it was clear I had an issue, but just never admitted it. Anyhow, I guess on the bright side....I am alive
I am looking for advice from everyone on the steps I should take in order to stay sober for life. Happy to be hear and look forward to getting to know everyone!
