Finally want soberity 22

Im a 22 year old male who has finally hit that famous bottom everyone talks about. I first went to meetings when I was 19, I believe the longest I've remained sober was 15 days over the last 3 plus years. Started drinking at 14. Ive finally have come to believe that if I continue its not if but when ill be dead or possibly do something terrible affecting someone else's life. So im here only 24 hrs clean withdrawals suck but I did this to myself, so im here and will listen to helpful advice thanks
