Nothing has EVER happened to me that has hurt my self esteem more than drinking. Not one single thing.
Stay sober. Find other alcoholics for support here at SR and local support groups. Your family will be proud of you (they probably are now, just worried it won't last). Prove them wrong...make it last.
It is worth it. YOU are worth it.
