Just starting my journey here after finally being able to admit that my drinking is a problem for quite some time. I’ve always avoided believing that the frequency of my drinking was an issue somehow since I wouldn’t drink to get drunk. I often find myself thinking that since I had a stressful day, I can just have a couple. Which turns in to an everyday occurrence.
I’m learning that my biggest hurdle is my inner self trying to rationalize having a drink at any time. It’s been a big reason why I’ve failed to stop in the past but I’m hoping and praying I can beat it.
Welcome to the community. Alot of great people here willing to help along the way. Maybe try the check in daily thread. Hold yourself accountable day to day. Glad you’re here

Welcome! Getting and staying sober is not easy, but it is worth it. I suggest finding some people that you can connect with that will keep you accountable in your sobriety, whether that is a 12 step meeting, some sober friends or family members, or some strangers on the internet. Glad you found us! Hang out for a while, it’s a cool place!
