Forums » Smalltalk » AMA- Recovering alcoholic

Yeah you read that right. I enjoy my sobriety and talking about it. It is one of the things that helps me stay sober.


As I said, ask me anything. Nothing is off-limits.

(Yes, I attend AA)

Hoping you stay sober. One day at a time.

What event and/or when did you recognize that you had a problem with alcohol?

What was your drink of choice? And how old were you when you had your first drink?

Drink of choice was whiskey, and I had my first drink when I was 15

I woke up in an abandoned building in just my pants with my shirt and shoes outside in the yard.

Edit: up until a few years ago, I had been on what our program calls a dry-drunk. That means I just didn't drunk, but I was still angry, bitter, and self-destructive
