Congrats on day 3 Sylver:ghug3
SR was the first place I came a few months ago and I practically lived on here. I go to more face 2 face meetings now. I too am a mother of 5, not too much older than you. I thought I had ruined my relationship with at least 1 child but she is very proud of me.
You can do this!
One day at a time, one breath if needed.
Hang in there

Did you go to a meeting yet?...Get some phone numbers of people you can call? It helped me a lot being around people in recovery.

Sylver - Prayers going up for you. Once this phase is over you never have to go back there again. Hold on to the hope of a better life.

Praying for you! It is hard in the beginning but you can get through it & you will be so thankful, you stuck it out.
Quitting drinking was the best thing I ever did..... For me & my family.
Keep looking forward to all the positives & never give up.

You can stay sober.

I convert the strength to resist that first drink into making a strong commitment of choice not to pick up that first drug/drink.

Resisting the urge to drink is to much of a battle for me. Standing on my conviction to live free from the influence of alcohol means I won before any battle starts.

I'll be sending healing thoughts your way.
