Susan, hang in there. Like you've observed, every day of "flexing" to this new reality (as sad as it is) makes life a tiny bit easier. There will be steps forward, steps back, but the net result will be that you will free yourself from the specter of alcoholism and move on to whatever you're intended to do with your one, precious life. I'm sorry it's so hard right now. Please feel free to come here and vent. We're good listeners
