You can change. You can be freed of the chains of addiction.

But you will have to stop putting barriers in front of your recovery...what you won't or can't do. Make sobriety your priority. It means getting the wine out of the frig and keeping it out. If that means finding child care, no matter how your children react, you do it. You sound desperate. So do what desperate people do--ANYTHING to get themselves out of their straits.
