Step 01: We admitted we were powerless over alcohol — that our lives had become unmanageable.
Sharing my experience, strength, hope, and opinions about this step and how I have weaved these principles into the tapestry of my life.
This is where it all began. Let me correct that; step 1 is where I finally came to grasp and wrestle with the idea that I was powerless over alcohol and that my life had become unmanageable. It took me about 2 years to get it right. First, I went to a meeting with a friend; then I went to some meetings while I was living with a girlfriend – she convinced me that I was drinking too much.
As some time passed, I went into a treatment center for about 5 days (the extent my insurance would pay) while living with the same girlfriend, then another treatment center for an even shorter period of time (over a weekend).
