Time to change
I think it's fair to say that I've been in denial for a while. Alcohol has always been such a big part of my life, family, friends, wife's family, all social drinkers. Me however, I've always seemed to take it a step too far and as times gone by, ive just seemed to take it even further.
I've never been a regular, daily drinker, but I've regularly drank to the point of passing out and saying/doing embarrassing things. I'm at a point now where my wife has had enough and to be honest, I've had enough.
There are times when I can enjoy 2 or 3 drinks, but there are many times when something in my head changes and I'm just on a mission to get drunk for whatever reason, nice day out, bad day at work, it could be anything and I don't know what triggers it.
I'm 33 with a good job, loving wife and a young son and I know if I don't quit drinking soon, I will loose all of that.
Anyway, today is my day 1 of a new start.
