Hey, I'm new.
Alcohol has been a big part of my life. I drink daily, and it's gotten to where I do stuff like wake up at 5 am and have a few more drinks to get back to sleep for a few more hours. That can't be good. I was so hungover/drunk/tired at work the other morning, I didn't think I'd get through the shift! So I figure, time to stop for a while. I've decided to not drink for 30 days, to see how that feels.
I'm gay, a millennial, and I live in my mom's basement and work as a paralegal. I've been stalking this website for a few weeks. My plan is basically to go running and eat healthy and post on here. I figure that'll be a start in distracting myself so I don't drink. Idk.
Thanks to everyone for being a part of this site, it seems like such a great community! Muah, much love, y'all are great, k.

Welcome aboard Phillip. Sounds like a good plan moving forward. Just remember to reach out here if you are feeling weak or if your AV is getting the best of you. This place was and still is a life line for many of us here.
Glad you found us!

It's great to meet you, Phillip. It helps to be among those who understand.
I was doing that too - waking up & taking a few sips to get back to sleep. Then when I got up, a few more sips...before long it led to all day drinking - & disaster. I could never trust myself once it was in my system. Wish it hadn't taken decades for me to get free. Glad you're here.
