New life for me and my children

Hello, everybody! My name is Evgeny, i live in Russia and about three weeks ago I've drunk in last time, I very hope so. Sorry for my poor English, i'd like to join in your community to have support, for my two kids.

I had episodes of drunk driving, consuming of clear ethanol, lost control of amount and awful quarrel in my family. Thans for advance for any assistance and greetings again

Welcome to SR!

Your English is fine. People with alcohol problems understand each other. That's what matters here.

Surely, yes. My mind is clear, physical condition is better then ever in last 7 years. My addiction wasn't obviously harmful, but was very strong on psycological side. Ordinary things, not meaningful negative events pushed me to alcohol. I aware, that, actually, I still in one step to reverse and it scares me

Hello Sillix. Welcome to the forum. Your English is fantastic (I can't even imagine how hard starting to learn Russian would be!)

There is lots of great advice here.

Hello and welcome! I can relate to what you said that it was everyday things that led you to drink not some big, important event. Just the everyday stresses of taking care of the kids, the house, etc would lead me to drink as well. 3 weeks is fantastic, keep it up!
