I have been reading messages on this site for quite a awhile but I think that it is time for me to come out in the open. I drink way too much. Every day. For many years. I know I need to stop but I don't know where to start. I told my family doctor - that was a huge step for me. I've been advised to consider residential treatment but I have young children who need me around and wouldn't understand where I'd gone. My doctor told me to start building a support system. Although I know lots of people, I don't have any close friends and my husband would not be a helpful support. I'm hoping that the connections I make here will be a start. I've thought about attending an AA meeting but I'm terrified of seeing someone that I know. Any suggestions for first steps?
