Day 1

Hi everyone,

I have been reading these posts over the past several months but this is my first time posting. A little about me: I am a 30-something stay at home mom to 4 kids. Before I stayed home I earned a Master's Degree and had a professional career. Alcohol was never a serious problem for me except within the past 2 years or so, after I weaned my youngest child and started having some serious depression issues. I have a loving husband who I love with all of my heart. My drinking has escalated to ridiculous proportions and I need to quit. I have tried several times and can usually get to day 5 or 6 before I drink again to the point of complete blacking out. My kids are getting older and starting to catch on to this. I am on medication for my depression now and an seeing a therapist. I have also started to go to AA meetings.
