Depending on how dependant you are on alcohol you may need a medical detox . I'm not sure if you have insurance, but there are free and/or sliding scale detox centers out there. Do you have someone that will take you and help you check in? It can be hard to fill out those questionnaires, but do it honestly. We have to be willing to be honest so that we can get the help we need.

Go to the hospital and ask for a referral to detox

You are worth it. You just did the first step. I’m not going to lie to you. Asking for help to get sober and staying sober will be the hardest thing you ever do. But it is worth it. Biggest thing is be honest. All the time. Alcohol withdrawal is serious so I also recommend detox. From there they will recommend the next level of care. Do whatever they ask. You need to be willing to admit you will go to any length to get it. Hope this helps. :heart:

Alicia offered some great advice. If you’re able to get a medical detox, then get with the nurse / social worker and ask for a referral to detox, from detox go to treatment. Or straight to treatment. Sometimes you have to advocate for yourself and tell them what you need and why. If you like me to help you find a treatment in your area, dm me. You can do this.
