leo i agree-go to AA first. your own self needs fixing first. by leading by example it may encourage your son too.

sounds like you all could go to AA together and be a support system for the 2 of you. course i encourage you both to also go to sepate mtgs. too. i'm glad you realize you have a problem. unmanageability is a sure sign of alcoholism, imo. the whole family is affected in a negative way.
leo you deserve a better life than you have now. it can be done. the willingness to go to AA is the key to help you stay sober. glad u realize how many people have gained sobriety by attending. we can't do it by ourselves, imo. we care about you, leo.  please keep us posted. free yourself from the bondage of alcoholism. you will never regret it. it steals our life, our souls, our relationships with others.
