What it was like?

My drinking caused my life to be unmanageable because when I took one drink, I couldn't stop drinking.

What happened?

I finally admitted to myself that my drinking was out if control. I also finally got honest with myself after years of denial, and admitted that alcohol was destroying my relationships and my health. Then I surrendered and asked for help.

What it is like now?

Wonderful! I'm now the father, friend, employee, student, and person alcohol kept me from being. I'm still feeling better all the time, one day at a time!
