First of all, I would like to say hi to you all! I'm new here at this forum and hopefully I will enjoy my stay. 
I started drinking when I was around 14, and I thought it was delicous (like almost everyone thinks at that age) but I started drinking every weekend and when I was 17 I also started drink at the weekdays and after a half year I dropped out from school. I lost many of my closest friends and my father hated me. I started hanging out with the wrong people, I also started taking drugs but I was lucky and never got stuck in it, and on some way I realized that I wasnt hanging out with the right persons and the way I'm going isnt the right way for me, so I also stopped drinking, got in touch with my old friends but almost after 3 months I started drinking again. They realized that I was on my way to my old direction and stopped calling, on some ways I understand them but at the same time I think they could been more supportive and try to help me out from my abuse, maybe they wasnt my friends after all? I am now 20 years and I have been sober for 4 months, and it feels great but I still miss that drink sometimes, I have succeed gotten a steady job and have started talking my dad again, but I still know that he doesnt trust me and probably thinks that I am gonna go back to my abuse. But I will make it, I want to be sober! Well, there you have my story, I just wanted to introduce myself. ~Kaliko
