A moment of clarity
Where I was....
I woke up again after another blackout. Something scared me. I said no more.
I had problems at work also and I said I needed to be clear headed for a week to get through. A week turned to two and here I am now 40 out of the last 42 days sober.
I now know I was lucky. I was gone in deep. I still am in deep. It's going to be a long hard difficult painful road.
The only thing that's giving me confidence is that I could have kept going for more years. But by then it may have been impossible to stop. I may have been in irreversible alcoholism.
Something jarred me out of it while I still had enough brain left to see how much trouble I was in. A higher power.
