Katie,
haven't met one person who hasn't felt just like that at one time or another.
or at twenty-seven times, or ninety-three....

great to see you giving this another shot.
truth is, chances are good if wine is your solution you will feel solution-less, because you now don't have a solution.
make sense?

so quitting might end up making those feelings "worse" at first, cause you now are not using the old "go-to".

give yourself time, expect upheavals, and you will find things changing.

what helped me lots at the beginning was tons of interaction on a forum and tons of reading other people's stories of how they recovered. and hope/belief that since hundreds of thousands of ####### had done this, so could i!
yes, really! putting it in those terms helped me.

way to go on day one!
