My health and marriage are on the rocks...so to speak

So here I am. I need support.

Too many years of too much drinking. Hubby told me this morning he doesn't want to be around me or do anything with me until I get my drinking under control. My liver panels just came back for the first time as slightly elevated at 50. I'm 51. My parents were alcoholics and it worsened as they aged. I have two older sisters that drink to excess and I feel we are all three on a trajectory to an early death.. I'm fat. I'm smart and could be very pretty again. And healthy.

I have a good job and that's about the most positive thing in my life.

I have Valium to use for detox. I just don't know the ropes. I've been a drinker my whole life. I'm not a fan of AA. I know it is helpful for so many and I am glad for that. But it is not for me.

So again, here I am. I'm hungover and I need support and a general idea of how detox works. I drink almost 1.5 L of wine a day.

Thank you.
