Scampered

I've only just admitted that I have a problem. I hope and pray that I will make it to a year. I'm really scared and am praying that I won't relapse. I have to stop drinking. I have 3 beautiful children, a loving husband and am really really scared. I am so frightened. I am so powerless and want to stop.

Hi Scampered

there's a ton of support here - you're not alone.

I used to drink every day all day - the community here helped me turn that around - I know we can help you too

If it helps, try to think about not drinking today - 24 hours can seem a lot more achievable than forever...get through today....then reaffirm your commitment again tomorrow...and so on...

will you be looking at support like AA as well?

Thank you so much.

I am crying as I write. I am so sick of being hungover and just want to get better.

I am thinking of AA. Did you join AA?

Like Dee said look into groups if you need. This place is wonderful when you have the urge. Keeping a journal or just remembering the things you mentioned above about your family is a good start to not drinking again. We are all here with open arms and wish you the best of luck in your new life. You will DO this.
