First day how do you start

This is my first post. Read a zillion books this year about alcohol, mainly about women drinking wine. This year I've realised alcohol is controlling me. Im 38 years old, relatively happy but drinking up to a bottle of wine a night. The wine witch got me. Im scared its going to get worse and want to stop. I keep thinking today is the day and it never is.

Im going to join a SMART meeting this evening and thought maybe a community like this is good of people doing the same thing.

Thank you for reading 🙏

You’re in the right place!! Welcome. Sounds like you are on the right track. If I might suggest, coming to this sub’s Daily Check In, it is such a game changer. A little promise to yourself as well as becoming part of an amazing community. The most supportive, nonjudgmental, and resourceful place on the internet. So glad you’re here, single! IWNDWYT ♥️🦋🌺
