I feel like s fool
This is a new thing for me but reading all these threads is helping. Started drinking after 3 years of sadness. I always felt like a "normal" drinker until I realized I was not. Now I have lost trust of my husband and my kids. Feel like such a fool. But this is day 4 sober after a relapse. Was 6 months sober, relapsed because thought I could handle social drinking. Went another 5 weeks sober, then just went on s 3 day spiral. My husband out of town so my 13 year old had to take care of me. The shame I'm feeling this time is awful. So emotional today but I don't blame my family.

Welcome!
I'm glad you're feeling better today. Hopefully you can come up with a plan to put into action to avoid a relapse in the future. You can show your husband and children that you are changing your life.

Welcome Redoplease. Congrats on day 4. Don't stop trying..... It sounds like you know exactly what you need to do. (Walk away from the drinks) It sounds simple, I know it's not. You CAN do this though. Wishing you patience and strength today.

Redo - we're so glad to have you with us.
Please be kind to yourself. None of us sets out to ruin our lives with alcohol. It was once fun & relaxing - not the nightmare it turned in to. Sometimes it takes us a while to stop pretending we can ever be a social drinker. You can do it! Please stay with us & keep posting.
