Hello Sue, that is the point of recovery and what I learned. If I was strong enough to quit drinking, I would have. I didn't want to wake up hungover, I didn't want to wonder what I did to look a fool, I didn't want to have arguments over my drinking. I wasn't and am not strong enough on mu own.

I had and still need to change that. I have to ask for help in various ways to various people. I have to open a book and find the root cause as to why I drink. I have to read about the solution and go to (brick and mortar) meetings to see the solution in action and yearn for what i see. I have to get honest with myself. There are 12 simple steps I must take for a complex person like me.

They are simple, not necessarily easy. I was told nothing worthwhile is ever obtained easily. After the fog cleared I got into action and started to heal. I was so desperate to change my life I would do anything to be relieved. Its a gift, I hope you find the gift of desperation.

Good luck. I really hope you do go to treatment because this is no way of life. You are thinking like you should. Sometimes we need to get help to get us started. It's nothing to be ashamed of. Admitting you have a problem is paramount. nothing else works if you don't think you have a problem, and it makes your life unmanageable. Don't forget a sponsor, and meetings. It all goes together. Along with service... And it wraps together with Gods grace. You can do it ... Just not alone.
