Yesterday I completed step 1 with my sponsor I had to admit I was an alcoholic (seems easy doesn't it) it took me 3 months to write about how I am powerless over alcohol and my life has become unmanageable. My sponsor even said "if you're not ready we can do it another time." However I completely admitted to him face up face that I could not pick up another drink like some ordinary person and if I did I would be going back through the torture I had to live through for 2 years.

Even though it was one of the hardest things I've had to do I felt s huge relief from it and finally getting the clarity I needed. A.A was the only thing that could keep me sober and in the 5 months I have been going it's given me so much more than I could ever imagine.

I strongly recommend it to anyone who is still having difficulty stopping or even having difficulty being sober! Without it there is no doubt in my mind that I would still be drinking today.

Lots of love!
