Hi myrtle - glad you are here for support and friendship. This place is wonderful.
I was living that way too. Everything revolved around alcohol in the end. I sure didn't intend that to ever happen. It was once fun, not a requirement! I was completely dependent on it by the time I quit. I'm glad you're taking a look at what drinking is doing to your life - you don't need it. It's good you're seeing a counselor. I hope you'll find the help you're seeking. Happy to have you join us.
