Hi. Im new.
I know I have a problem.
What scares me is that alcoholism is a progressive disease and I can see it progressing with me.
I drink like crazy on the weekends. I have gone from one bottle of wine a night to one double bottle a night. I black out sometimes. More and more it seems.
Ive been eyeing Vodka lately at the grocery store. I know that if I buy it im gone.
I could easily start drinking early morning everyday but I try my damndest to stick to weekends and only at night.
I could type so much more but im going to stop here.

Welcome Anonygrrl: You're in the right place. There is a lot of support here..look around if you haven't already. I am a weekend evening drinker and also drink alone. This is my 15th day sober and it feels so good to have that control I never thought I had. One day/hour/minute at a time is how it's done. I do not go down the booze isle at the supermarket, it's just too tempting. Good luck on your journey and keep us posted.

Welcome to SR!
Drinking increased, blackouts. Red flags for sure, you have a right to be
concerned. This is the place to be..I suggest you read much...and
join in whenever you feel like it. You are not alone anymore.

Hello and welcome. I am new here to and this has been my saviour, these wonderful people here. Yes it is a progressive thing as I have gone from drinking not very often to binge drinking on weekends, and then a couple of nights during the week. And when I look back I can see how things developed, and it is scary. So I cannot just have one, I need to stop drinking fully.
Best wishes to you. And please keep posting, you will get great support here.
