This! And, it takes time. 30 days is awesome! And early. Most of us if not all of us find it takes time, time, time, to live a totally new and free life- which is possible.

I'm an avid AAer- it has saved my life- so I would suggest going to meetings- just start. Then perhaps commit to 30/30 or 90/90 (meetings in days) so you a) get to know the program b) give yourself a chance to heal and start learning and c) have a regular commitment in the outside-your-home world.

You can do this- and I PROMISE you that a life without alcohol, for us alcoholics, is far better in its REAL-ness than a life drinking.
