You just did! Asking for help is the hardest part.
Depending on your DOC, you may want to start by going to detox. Any emergency room will admit you for a medical detox if you ask. Alcohol can be dangerous to detox from. Next get into a program like AA/NA. There are several different options, try them all if you need to. Lastly be kind to yourself. We don’t become addicted in one week, getting clean is gonna take some time. Be patient. Work the program.

You can do it. I’ve found that structuring my life in a way that keeps my brain and body busy has helped…and it gets easier over time.

I would suggest to find meetings near you and start going to them. Tell them you are new, usually you will get a pamphlet with all women's numbers from that meeting. If you can find a women's meeting, even better. Building a sober network is extremely helpful. If you need any help finding meetings in your area, feel free to hit me up and I'll find some for you. You are worthy of a good life and you can do this❤
