Day 2 Sobriety

They say that sooner or later you forget your sobriety days. I can't wait to find that is true.
I have started this blog because I believe it will help in my recovery from alcoholism and my attempt to remain sober day by day.

Right now, I will not tell of my most recent drunk but I am done. I have known I was done for a few months. But, apart from a few attempts at AA I have not done anything about it.

However, on Monday I finally admitted, at 30 years of age, that I was an acloholic to the man I love most, my father. By doing that, I had finally admitted to myself that I was an alcoholic. I have kept this knowledge from him for years, so to do it, though it does not feel huge, I just know it is. I know that it will change my future.

Yet sobriety for me will only come with AA. Tomorrow I go back home to my girlfriend. I am then abroad working with my father. I used to fear that but I know I will remain sober. Next Thursday, when I return, I will be back in the meetings. This time I will ask for help.

So, that is my first post. I look forward to so many!
