My fiance whom I loved so much left me because of my binge drinking. I have no idea how to forgive myself and how to move on. The pain is excruciating.
I have a beautiful family, good life, nice job and few really good friends. And every bad thing that I did in life was under the influence. I am very honest, warm and loyal person and my drunk alter ego destroyed the relationship that meant a world to me. I can not look myself in the mirror and I feel terrible guilt.
Hey and welcome. I could have written that post myself and I feel your pain. You are making the best decision to stop. Nothing can be fixed if you don't fix yourself first. You can make a change and you can do this. The change starts with you.
