everyone is here to support you and asking for help is a first step. I do not know the extent of your drinking (and de-toxing). but if the cooling off period is over at home, sit down and calmly discuss your actions and plan of action to quit with your husband. then just begin to live...it's a given that you are going to feel craptastic for a couple of days.

but you can be sober and start living your life. I wanted to clarify that what I posted before came from my own experience...i hope i didn't come off as judgmental-sounding. I've had plenty of back-slides and I always grab onto the fact that sobriety gives me the following: less anxiety, less depression, less pain. More rest, more energy(a cleaner house) and the ability to deal with my problems in a calm, sensible manner. Life didn't become perfect when i got sober, but it made certain issues a whole lot easier to manage....and i even looked better doing it.
