ClubMedGrad

In fact, at the time, I was going to 3 meetings a day, and wondered if there weren't some way to find online support and/or chat. I heard another FOB refer to this site, and today (while sick with a cold and not wanting to brave the bad weather) decided to check it out.

Emotionally, I'm scared. And spiritually, I haven't yet figured out to surrender (something they talked about at my AA meeting yesterday). They talked about giving up the struggle--giving it up to your higher power.

As exhausting as it is, I feel right now that if I give it up, the sickness will take me over.

Still a lot to learn, I guess.

We take the steps at our own time. I think I'm going to be on step 1 forever.

Welcome! Step 1 is only the acceptance that I have given my best effort to drinking responsibly but cannot control my intake once started. This realization comes from an honest appraisal of one's drinking history. Me? I had no problem admitting I was alcoholic but thought I could sail through life with a happy buzz 24/7. I could not-it nearly killed me (I'm not the only one judging from the posts here). Hope this site helps you. It is my primary support for 4 months now.

Hi there. I too am at the stage of just admitting that I can't control my intake and that it will take over my life. I cannot control it. I'm 14 days and that's what I can do right now. Say I'm an alcoholic.

14 days is terrific, keep up the good work.
