Welcome,
I am also new here on SR. I am so glad I found this place and I am here to stay! I also haven't went to a meeting but as soon as schedules change around my household I will be able to make it to one, and I will go to at least 6 as was also suggested to me! I've made up my mind to do at least that.
BTW- my husband use to do that binge drinking in the car on the way home thing too (for the past three years.) and I am sorry but I call that an Alcoholic of coarse he didn't! I later found out things were worse than just drinking on the way home! But my AH also has back problems and got addicted to pain pills and ended up in rehab. Anyway, good luck to you and hang around here you'll be glad you did!
