Re intro

Hi I'm Alex looked over this site for years and have posted once or twice in the past but after reading through the forms and speaking to people I'm really starting to realise how good this site is and thought I'd better proper introduce myself.

Started drinking at 11 taking drugs at 14 my drinking got worse once i was about 17 until i was drinking about 5 days a week. I'm 25 now managed a few spells of being sober 3 months was my longest spell. Currently on day 2 again but something feels different this time.sick of the fear and embarrassment and doing things i would never do sober. I have destroyed alot of relationships and annoyed some dangerous people as well threw my drinking most recent was Fri night which doesn't help my anxiety but this time I'm going to face it all sober instead of after a bottle and few lines

Sorry it's so long fingers just kept going lol

I'm glad you posted, Alex - this is a great place for encouragement. I wish I'd tried sobriety at 25. You'll never have the regrets many of us have. You can do this!
