Hi Rainbow,

Welcome to our recovery community.

I was binge drinking in my teens and twenties. Got married, then separated. Had two young children. Used to go out drinking with friends but my behaviour had gotten pretty unpredictable so I started drinking at home, alone. Started to crave booze, and started drinking more frequently, although not a daily drinker.

I was first identified by my peers as 'problem drinker' at 19 - I didn't quit until I was 33. I had lost a lot by then. You are wise to stop now - while you still can.

Please continue to post - there is much support and information here.
