This site is a great place to vent it out to folks that want to help.

Picking up drinking again will be a huge mistake.

You have a huge leg up on your future by being sober. Being a drunk does nothing good for you.

A few hours of Euphoric stupor followed by days of pain to the mind and body.

There is no problem alcohol can't make worse.

Suggest try to find an activity where you are giving of yourself. Helping your family w chores, helping someone on SR, donating time or money to a charity etc.

When you are feeling down and needy, give of yourself freely and anononamously, and you are rewarded 10 fold.

I am a Dad and teacher. I try to help my family and my students. I find comfort in that.

Thanks.
