Meetings and counselors did not help me in the past. I quit drinking in 2011 because...lol...I got pregnant. And...I mean, I went 9 months without having a drink and I felt like I did not need one. I felt great after month 5. I remember thinking (while pregnant) "wow, what a fresh feeling this is..." Cont.

I am heavily considering this freaking expensive month long recovery place, but, my husband is against it. It would shock the rest of my family (considering they do not know that I relapsed in 2016.) It's in California. I am in Texas. I would only get to speak to them three times a week for 10 minutes. 31 days.

Does it sound crazy that I am looking at you guys as my other option??? Way less expensive. And I know us fellow addicts have some tips/tricks up the sleeve. My mind is so clouded now that I just can't get it. I want that cloud to go away.
But, after 5, I want the anxiety of it to go away so....you win Red Wine.
