When I realized I had a problem...
Was when I was first hospitalized for withdrawals at age 28. But now that I am sober I can look back and remember my first days of drinking when I was 15. I blacked out most of the time! How did I ever think this was normal?!
Probably because all if my friends were alcoholics too. But then why did I feel so alone when I knew it was time to stop? Because alcohol isn't a problem until it is. Which is a lie. I hate it and it's conniving ways. No one ever explained to me how dangerous it is. No one gets how bad it is until it has done it's damage one way or another. At least that's how I feel.
Had to vent. Thanks for listening😁
Hope everyone has a great weekend!
