Book Preview:

#1 I had to be at work in two hours, so I had to get some wine. I inched out of bed and walked naked toward the kitchen, my stomach lurched with the undeniable rumble of rising vomit, and I dashed to the bathroom with my hand pressed against my mouth. I vomited violently and then sprawled out across the cold tile floor.

#2 I felt sicker than usual. My head was heavier and murkier. I could feel the anxiety in my guts and bones. I was going to die, I thought. I had killed myself. I called my ex-boyfriend, Mark, and asked for help.

#3 I was finally going to do something about my life. I needed to go to detox or rehab for alcohol or something, but I didn’t know what to do or where to go. I called my doctor and explained that I was drinking all the time and getting sick. He suggested two hospitals that would accept my insurance for detoxification treatment.

#4 I had to tell my parents that I was an alcoholic, and I was afraid they would not support me if they knew the truth. I was afraid that if they knew I was an alcoholic, they would view me as weak and untrustworthy.
