I am just recently breaking the news to my friends, shit to myself, that I am an alcoholic. So funny how they react. "Well, I mean, you are just going to quit during the week right? I mean what about holidays?" It's like yes, what about all of that? Figuring out myselt...don't you think I have wondered how I'm going to get through them too?

You'll get through the holidays--one day at a time, Rebecca. Just like the rest of us do...

 Frankly, you didn't have to announce you are going on the wagon to everyone, perhaps only to close friends and immmediate family. The rest will see you are not drinking. Your actions here are more meaningful than your words, especially now and if you failed in the past.

Don't think, don't drink, go to meetings in that order and you will be successful! And get a sponsor and phone numbers.
