Welcome to SR, Listeningheart1. (Great name BTW.) Seeing the cycle is so hard to do sometimes and is an amazing accomplishment!
SR is a great resource for learning about alcoholism affects lives and has been a major support. I also really liked the book
Under the Influence to learn about how alcohol affects the alcoholic. (There are excerpts in the stickies.)
Wishing you peace and strength.
