New to the group

Hi everyone. I am joining the March 2015 group. Today is day 1 (again) for me. I've been trying to get sober for 10 months. I went to rehab in August and was sober for 6 weeks. Since October the longest I've been sober is 3 weeks. I go to meetings every day, I have sponsor and I'm working on my 4th step. Yesterday the idea to drink hit me so hard and so fast. I guess I haven't surrendered although I pray for God to relieve me of the obsession. I'm feeling pretty low today, lots of remorse, husband is disgusted with me. I've been reading the forums but this is my first post. I'm going to reach out more.

Exclamation Heroine

My daughters ages 22 and 24 are both heroine users. We have sent them both to rehab. They keep relapsing. I have been robbed blind by them and cannot afford to send them anymore. I cannot have them live with me. They are homeless and friendless because of drugs. They have no job and have criminal records because of drugs. I have had to turn my back on them to preserve my own life. It is the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. I will no longer participate in any aspect of drug use and helping them is doing just that. They look like the walking dead and my heart is broken into smithereens. I pray but no answers to my prayers as of yet. I despise the drug dealers who take advantage of a person in crisis. I despise drugs. I am hating right now and am trying to get to a peaceful place that I can live with. Its one hell of a roller coaster ride and I want/need to get off.
