Hi folks. I'm new to the recovery, after having a bit of a relapse over the weekend.
I've known for some time that I have a problem with alcohol. I didn't drink every day, but when I did I never knew if I was going to stop. I finally reached bottom version 1.0 about two years ago, when I blacked out at a professional baseball game and had to be rescued by my brother in the downtown of a major metropolitan area.
I quit for over a year. Last April my father was involved in a serious motorcycle/pedestrian accident, and the stress of dealing with that sent me back to booze. I was able to control it, but gradually got worse and worse. Last Saturday I spent a good eight hours bar hopping before finally get dragged home by my wife - driving myself, of course.
So now it's time to really, finally get serious about meeting my demons head-on, and figuring out a way to stop letting alcohol control my life. From what I've seen so far on this forum, this is a good place to be.

It's a great place to be md. I've been here six days and I'm up to Day 4, SR is supportive and non-judgemental.
