Good morning
and thank you for this honest sharing of your experience janelee.
i was in law enforcement for 30 years (not police) and have been arrested 3 times, all due to my alcohol abuse
i can say categorically that if i had been sober this never would have happened.
sometimes these events help us to understand that whatever life hands us, none of it will be any easier to handle if we drown it in booze
quite the opposite!
i lost wife, home career and myself in my futile attempts to manage my drinking
sober 18 months now and life has never been better
like you, i have to be prepared to do things differently now
and like you i am now prepared to reach out for the help that i need
well done
you will find a lot of experience,practical advice and support here
Be well and thanks for joining us
