Welcome David
I am glad that u found this site. There is lots of wisdom and support here. The first step is in recognizing that your drinking is causing problems for you, and you have done that. Many have learned to moderate. Many cannot. You sound like a good candidate for moderating, as you go long periods without it. I can relate to the social phobia. I picked up drinking after ten years without alcohol, because I got divorced, and thought I never would be able to start the single life sober. Dating, meeting guys, etc...made me so anxious. Now not drinking or dating. lol. Welcome aboard. I look forward to reading your future posts. We are here to help.
