Day 1
My fear of doing nothing and continuing to kill myself with alcohol was greater than my fear of trying to quit and failing. At least if I work for sobriety, I have a hope. If I just give up, I have nothing. Everyone here has been on day one. You can do it! What's your plan to stay sober?
You have a brother. Day 1.
On a trip to an AA room some years ago a gentleman said something I found simple and obvious, yet profound. "I can't stay sober for the rest of my life today. I can only stay sober today, today."
There is success in being sober just today, I think.

Pleased to meet you, Caravagio.
I was afraid to fail, too. I had done it so often in the past, but I didn't really give it an honest effort. The last time - I was determined. I knew I had to reclaim my life. That's when I found SR. Not being alone made all the difference. You can do this.

Caravagio.... One of my favorite artists! You have company also from me, here. Trying for a real Day 1 tomorrow. I have been tapering down and it has helped; each morning I wake up more alert and like myself.
Although I have not been a heavy drinker it is enough that I have been worried about quitting CT (not so young anymore, and the blood pressure thing scared me a bit) but it is time to give it a real try, so tomorrow is the day. 3 of us here? (You, Nonsensical and me?) I am going to subscribe to this thread and try to hang in there with you two as companions.
May we all have strength.
