Cantdothis - It IS possible. I am a recovering alcoholic and a struggling recovering drug addict. I am also a SAHM and homeschool my autistic and adhd child. It IS so very hard. Scared of the unknown. I suffer from chronic pain and mental illnesses and with all of this going on, I am finally in (early) recovery. I am married but I might as well be a single mother. Taking care of a child with special needs of any kind is such a challenge in itself. You can recover with the right tools. For me, SR has been a great source of help, 2 different therapists, a psychiatrist and the couple of friends that I have made on here whom I've grown close to. Very important to have some sort of support. I don't know how much you've been drinking or for how long but medical detox might be a safe option as detox can be quite dangerous to some. *hugs*
