I am trying to accept that we are at a point where our life is going to change drastically in a year or two.
I am trying to accept that my kids are older and don't need me around as much, even though I know they love me.
Without drinking, I can work through a lot of this. When I drink, these things become magnified and out of proportion.
How do you deal with your issues?
