Alcoholism Support Group
Alcoholism is the continued consumption of alcoholic beverages, even when it is negatively affecting your health, work, relationships and life. If you think alcohol is causing you to lose control, it's time to seek help. Our group is a safe place to vent, check in, get back up if you fall, and reach sobriety.
Hey everyone I hope you're all doing well, this is my 12th day sober, Ive found the last days a bit easier and infact I even gave up smoking yesterday cold turkey.
So I still dont know if I'm an alcoholic (heres the story explaining this on Day 1 - http://www.dailystrength.org/c/Alcoholism/forum/18867669-am-i-alcoholic ) and tonight Ive been invited to a party and Im not sure if Im ready, I dont plan on drinking but I just havent been in this situation before.
I dont know if anyone can really give me advice on this, I plan to go a little later than everyone else and just for an hour or something, is this a good idea?

staying sober, I wouldn't go. Im on day 11 and mostly doing rest.
You look like you figured it out, that's a good idea, or like said Heathersangeltalk said, focus on what's important to you. and congratulation about the 12 day of sobriety.
So are you alcoholic? Up to you but you know that alcoholic drinking always progresses. It's a progressive deadly disease that tells you you don't have it.
Hmm.
I'd go to an aa meeting vs a party or event with booze this early on.....
