Welcome. We have plenty of your countrymen here and I am sure they'll be along shortly. Interesting that you used the word "kindergarten". Bill Wilson, one of the founders of AA, wrote that AA is "spiritual kindergarten". Are you checking out AA?

Welcome selfportrait - I'm up way to late, but just wanted to say hello and welcome to the forum... Kindergarten is actually a good place to start - we admit we don't know anything about how to stay sober and the learning begins. I'm still learning after a year's sobriety.

Alcohol is a ruthless master, but you can get your life back. Glad you're here!
