Like others have said, posting on SR is a recovery plan. I used it all the time in early sobriety.
I also attended 10 one on one counseling sessions. These were helpful but not critical to my sobriety.
I also highly recommend reading "This Naked Mind" by Annie Grace. It totally changed my thought process on how I viewed alcohol.
As time passes it gets much easier. I know it can be very different for everyone but it took me about 6 months before I was recovered from alcohol.
