I'm Baaack
Hi All,
I posted a thread on this forum a while back indicating that I thought that I needed help to stop drinking.....thought I'd provide an update introducing my new status. As briefly as possible:
I began drinking heavily over the past 3 years, but was still a functional alcoholic. I knew that I needed help, but didn't reach my 'rock bottom' until I attempted suicide while drinking. The next day I went inpatient for 11 days. Since I've been out, I've been attending AA meetings (going for 90 in 90 days), and am currently enriolled in IOP. Despite what I've been through/am going through....I STILL question if I really have a problem....alcohol is truly cunning, baffling, and powerful. :crazy
Anyways, you guys have been extremely supportive in the past - and I'm glad to be back.
