Woke up this morning sad and disappointed. I have Monday off. I want to start again. I can't help my mother if I drink. I can't look for a new job if I drink. I just don't want to go back to that existence. For so many reasons. I want to stay sober. It's August 20th at 7:41 am
24 for me

This is a rough time for you and your family, and it hurts....I know. A lot of us do unfortunately.
Let us help you get through this love ~ we will do it together, one day at a time. ♥
