Hi pigeon

I am sorry for the loss of your daughter. God knows you have a lot better reason to drink than I ever had. But drowning out the pain will surely bring more and more pain, not less.

They gave me some very good advice over in the friends and family forum:
1) the number one priority is to get yourself sober and healthy
2) successful recovery involves more than simply not drinking
3) you cannot control what other people do or think, you can only control your own actions and lifestyle

It sounds to me as though you have a loving wife who will support you in your recory. But your recovery is what you must concentrate on now.

All the best of luck.
