Hi Gdgirl,
Im 42 and I was in a similar position a little over a month ago. I had been drinking 750mls of vodka a day for about ten days and my anxiety was through the roof. It is so worth quitting, I'm feeling fantastic today, even after a health scare. My relationship with my partner is going from strength to strength, my kids are happier and I'm feeling vital and capable again. Nothing beats this feeling. I hope you'll stick around and keep posting, this site is making a huge difference to my resolve to not drink again in future. Make SR your new facebook, the support is fantastic and you don't have to deal with all those pro-drinking memes and friends posting constant photos of themselves with drinks in their hands!
